    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.

    If I (who doesn't even own a smartphone) can master the image hosting thingy then anybody can!

    Marching orders received ;) Thursday task: select picture :rolleyes:

    I'm going to stick with one long chain (despite chat about running two) this is my first time and managing one lot of ye will be enough :p

    Anyone in the either pile prefer to describe? Save me choosing :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,554 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    I'll switch to describe, as my laptop has died a death and dont have any programs on the iMac as just using it for work, I've also a lot on over the next few weeks.

    I really dont want to have to freehand it again :p

    In footballing terms aaron, I've beaten the man, gone round the goalkeeper, passed it to you and you've got an open goal, just put the ball in the net. Easy! :)

    Ooh, wow. I don't think I've ever been this early in the chain. I'm looking forward to it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,515 ✭✭✭aaronjennings


    I've been quite proud of the last few pictures I've done for these games

    This picture does not meet those expectataions

    My post was tongue in cheek really , as I know the phobia is real for some participants.

    Don't worry Mam - I just figured it might incite someone to include something who did not realise :) Sometimes these things appear organically because of a description but no need to add them otherwise.
