Decshak, I have albums of photos on a website named Webshots....
When at my index page of all albums, I think that I just hit the button that said embed this photo show or something like that, hit copy and pasted it to the blog post, selecting HTML at the bottom of the writing window.
Or something like that. The question is, can I do it again? I don't know the answer to that question.

Re: benzinha from lindo.....
Artists never do make a fortune because we forget to put the price of phone calls and travel and food, etc. into the price of our work. We end up making $.25 an hour and would be better paid frying potatoes in a fast food restaurant.
However, it would not be as much fun nor as soul filling. I hope that the Libyan showing of your work leads to greater things for you and your little family. Being an acclaimed Islamic artist would be wonderful.
I make Saints and Angels and Jesus, etc. out of terra cotta clay. The first commandment in the Christian bible tells people not to do that. I suspect that I shall go straight to hell when I die, but I do like doing the work. I am not so religious that I fear the condemnation, nor do I belong to one church, so I fear no congregation. Christians are also much more lax about our commandments that Muslims are, I think.
Though in America, everyone relaxes the strict upbringing that the temples, churches and mosques hope to teach. There are orthodox communities thriving around here, but each generation gets lazier about strict behavior....
I do other work that is not religious and it sells well, too, but the religious work sells faster and more often.
I hope that you sell everything and remember to raise your prices a bit, to cover the phone calls. I love your creations.

Re: And... Something has to save u
us, azur, those of us who want to live longer. I want to KNOW when I will die, so that I can hurry up or take it slow. Not asking for too much, no?
Stay on top of everything, because doctors and machines and tests aren't all that magazines about science profess to be. We have to fight for ourselves, insist upon treatments or the good things just don't happen.
Doctors just broke my spirit and bank account, however and I gave up. Bad decision. You will never do that. God bless you and your fight for your best health.

Re: Yesterday I visited Tucson
Anytime, azur. Mi small dusty casa with three idiot dogs es su casa, any day, any year, anytime.
Glad you got to escape for a minute into my town.

Re: Thanks! Neat panning on the slideshow
Webshots does that, maj. I like it, too, but the small slideshow cuts off the photos some.

And...
...thank you for your words left on my post. You spoke of how we may be better off not knowing so much as medical science tells us. Sometimes it can only give us worry. In spite of perhaps not sound like it, I count myself very fortunate. I was saved one by a baby, and now I may be saved again by a pain in the stomach. To be twiced saved is more than most people ever get...

Yesterday I visited Tucson
Some of the gems looked liked an array of foods at an exotic market. And I saw the light through the quartz. And those big green ones that have been dissected. I have seem them here too. Really enjoyed the show. Good to flit off to Tucson.
