LOL! :D I have no idea how, and it might not be that, it might be to do with all these dpi settings, and colour match on or off and all those obstacles :rolleyes: :)

Thanks. Nice pics everyone.

LOL Beldin. Um, can I see those pics? :D

Jaesha seems to have gotten the wrong end of the stick (unless its "artistic") - there's no figure in the last figurative photo... ;)

@Seraph -

This is a competition. Please only enter photos which you took.

Also, remember people, it is not mandatory to enter baby photos. I know that people love babies, but... :D :cool: :)

Size matters...

Before anyone ask, no, it's not about *that* size.

How can I post photos bigger?

Also, if we keep posting photos, would this fill up server too much, wouldn't it?

frogus - I think I recognise that blue brick, but I have absolutely no idea where from. Is it in Oxford somewhere or is my mind playing tricks on me?

It's from a lava field in Kamchatka, so yes, it used to be seriously classified ;) . Specifically, it's a petrified forrest near the vulcano Tolbachek.
