As predicted...

[GetCarter]

I took about 300 photos yesterday. Just about perfect weather.

I've just changed yesterdays pic... (for once I had about 30 to choose from)

You know that book you were planning on doing?

Think you've just done the cover shot

Stunning

(We had a nice sunset for yesterday's pic here www.flyingbadger.net/ - given up on the static HTML pages and started using my main site for 'em)

[mcgus]

Mr Carter, you never cease to amaze me on two counts, firstly how absoultely wonderful the scenery up in your part of the world is, and secondly how well you capture it. Fantastic.

[SGirl]

Sometimes, Mr Carter, just sometimes, I find you really hard to like.

Just kidding. It's a fantastic shot. Great work! It'd make a good desktop.

A 300 to 1 hit rate isn't bad for you mate, Well done!

That is stunning!

Presumably if you travel during the course of the year we'll get photo's of various exotic locations to ogle as well?

BTW, More Aston!

Yea, I hate me as well. Thing is... a monkey with a D2X and a grad filter could have taken that shot. Right place right time.

BTW Love Feb 5th Graham.

How do I stop the active desktop stretching the photos? Cheers.

[GetCarter]

I'd also be interested as I haven't worked that out. I just manually do it (guesswork). I think it may be a 'no no'.

[SlimJ]

Stunning stuff, you are so lucky to have such great scenery on your doorstep!

Are they always the same dimensions ?
If so: Get it to the right size and position, then right click elsewhere on the desktop > Properties > Desktop tab > Customize Desktop > Web tab > Lock desktop items

If not you're on your own

(assuming XP)

Ta - just as well it turned out well, was the only one - I had a jobsworth security guard give me grief just after my first shot. Nobber.
