Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

PAINT - Here comes the Summer Sun (hopefully)!
-
03-05-2021 9:11pm#1I promised I'd run a paint game back at the end of Feb, so now that RL is out of the way
I'm striking while the iron is hot - I have shamelessly stolen lots of Ecto's last OP 
What is Paint?
It is a chain game. You sign up to either describe or paint or if you don't mind which you do. Your host (me) chooses an image and sends it to the first describer in the chain. They then PM a 10 word description of the image to me.
I send that description to the first painter in the chain. They use that description to paint a masterpiece (using MS Paint or similar). When they have completed their painting, they send me a link to their image which I then pass on down the chain to the next describer.
It's hilarious fun - see here
Easter(ish) Paint Reveal
Sign up on below and say if you prefer to describe or to paint. Nothing more to do until I send you a description or image via PM to inspire your poetry or art!
I'll put a link to free image hosting for the painters, if needed, when we have a chain ready
Probably aim to start the art in mid May if we have enough links...6

Can I say , I'm useless at drawing /painting , plus even if I did manage to upload imgur or whatever, how the feck do I attach the image in the pm , as I don't have that option on the phone?

Imgur or equivalent creates a link to your pic and you just copy the link into the pm
At your discretion Mam if you wanna try painting, you are absolutely welcome either way! 0 -

Once you can get the image location from imgur it's pretty easy for people to get the link to the actual image itself. If you have a link for example http:// imgur. com / xxxxxxxx (I've added spaces so I don't link random crap) the img file that would go into the tags is http://I. Imgur. Com/ xxxxxxxx. Jpg0 -

I think it just sounds difficult when people try to explain it (like if someone asked you to explain how breathing works ; its gonna sound complicated, but everyone seems to manage to do it).
If you managed to set up a boards.ie account you already have all the technological knowhow you'll need to upload a picture to imgur and send the link to ari.0 -
