thanks, was a big fan when he played Flash Gordon in the 30's serials.

I was of course watching the repeats some 20 years later.

he was a Tarzan as well.

Easter, I use this site:


http://tinypic.com/


Just upload pics from your PC and then copy the URL onto here.

He was, and a champion swimmer like Johnny Weismuller who Tommy mentioned.

And there's more:

that's a toughie.

On Google, Image Search, pick what you want

Left click on the photo you want, you get the option to 'save image as....'

That brings up the pictures on your computer, enter text to save it

Go to http://tinypic.com/ click 'browse' , this brings up the pictures you have saved

select one, click open, then 'upload now' , then you enter the code you see

then you have your link from 'IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards'

Are any of you quizzers interested in putting together a forum team for the next series of Only Connect?  I recommend it - good fun and they look after you well.  It will be filmed in Cardiff in March

Some of us are so enamoured to the Classic forum that they spent wasted minutes copying and pasting the addresses into Google instead of looking in via Beta.

can't believe it,i'll ask me nephew what's wrong

So you have the link on Tinypic then?

which comed up like this

then you delete the [img][/img] to leave http://i51.tinypic.com/zl811e.jpg

http://tinypic.com/r/2ymypaq/7

ha ha didn't work for me either!

You have to only copy it from http up to the 2nd bracket, so leave off the IMG stuff

i've been copying the ''IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards'

where i should have been copying the 'URL for E-Mail & IM'

got there in the end

No thats the right one just make sure not to paste the brackets with IMG in

ahh okay ,cheers mate

Here's an easy one - forumite  and well know public speaker getting into the Christmas spirit

'known'

Come on guys, this is better than talking about the horrors of the world.

let's explore the horrors of chit-chatters.

Clues will start shortly

This man is an all round Mr Nice Guy*









*This may be a pretendy clue

.

Boring coonts

I think this has pretty much confirmed my New Year's Resolution.

A WHO IS THIS CHIT CHAT MEMBER? Quiz with photographs and clues is a great idea! I'd like to play.

.

I don't want to be the only one to submit a photo though, get ten or so to commit and you can count me in.

Good man, but I think chit chat is finished in all but name.

Why's that? It seems to be knocking on okay whenever I look in.

A lot of the same old ***** of course spouting their nonsense, but that back and forth of banter is what makes the forum imo.

I don't like the censorship though, you can't even write tw@s now!

Or *****!

**** **** ******* **** and *****

Are you still there Crags? Why haven't you got a little green or grey circle by your name mate? I don't know whether to wait for a reply or go to bed.

I couldn't see any of the earlier pictures by the way, only the bloke in the Santa hat.

Even superheroes need their sleep.

Oh, I think that one can say pricks, so use that instead of tw@ts?
