Hey and btw here NS...

You've just enlightened me about somethin' when you posted this Little Richard song here!

Yeah, ya see, I don't think I knew beforehand that John Bonham's opening drum solo to the Led Zepplin song "Rock and Roll" was actually a copy of the opening drum solo in this Little Richard recording and done by Charles Connor.

(...and so as they say, at least my day won't be a total waste today, right?!) ;)

I don't know if I ever read that before but, yes, I can hear it! Thanks, Dargo.

It's pretty much the same as posting a still pic, ziggy.

Internet image search whatever subject you'd want to post but add "gif" at the end of your subject line, and then right click upon the one you'll select, and then left click "Copy Image Link".

And then just post it as you would a still pic around here.

Your Graphics Interchange Format animated image should then post in all its glory, and just like the following one from the W.C. Fields movie, 'It's a gif'...

(...ahem, sorry...I meant from the W.C. Fields movie 'It's a Gift') ;)

Enjoy...

Sorry, Dargo, mere screen name recognition will not work for you. Without the GM avatar your identity may become blurry. You ARE going to reprise your well-known avatar, yes?

I haven't been reading all the posts on this issue and I am confused why anyone would have any reason to log out. Don't explain if complicated. I am sticking with what works. I stay logged in all the time and I haven't had any problems, so far.

Well, actually here laffite, because I had hoped this present situation would be short-lived, I hadn't planned on posting an avatar in the interim.

However, considering I'm now not sure when Lomm might return to discover the PM that Tiki has sent him regarding my little predicament here, I've kind'a decided to use the following one in the interim...

(...but and however again, I can't seem to resize and shrink this one down enough to please the avatar input function around here)

Yeah, I know, and considering my own personal "predilections", huh.

Yeah, gotta admit Norma there is showing some pretty good form on her overhead smash, alright.

Here's an interesting mix of film and tennis celebrityhood - note Fred Perry wearing his trademark shirt, Dargo:

You probably already know this, but Charlie there was noted for being THE best tennis playing celeb in all of Hollywood back then.
