    I've started the gnome story, a coupe of members have sent me some images. I'm sure you all have something in the garden besides plants. Anything, I'll try to fit them in, statues, gnomes, elves, concrete animals, you must have something, only need another 40.

    Ooops, forgot to retake photos of my gnomes. Do you want only the ones sitting in the garden or would some sitting inside work too?

    Just the garden really so that they fit in with the title etc, I am well into it, I think it will work out great. Everyone could be famous.

    I tried getting some photos this evening but they are coming out greenish and two of my gnomes are buried under really large Salvias, I'll get those pulled out tomorrow.

    About what size did you want these?

    It would be good if you send them big. I can crop and size them. Looking forward to receiving them. What I have so far is looking good.

    I don't really do nic-nacks as such but we have a cute sun dial if that's any good?

    Same address as for the Earth day pictures?

    Yes, send it in. I'm going to try to put all the images that are sent to me in the story.

    I am a gnomeless person, I have a concrete dog with an empty flower basket but no gnome. There is a scruffy concrete cat that is in need of a paint job. Oh wait! I have a frog, actually two, if you count the one Joyce broke with the ladder, it still functions it just isn't in the yard. They are indoor frogs that go out on the deck in the summer. Not much in the way of garden 'art,'

    I think because of copyright laws you ought to send them directly to him, PM him for his email address.

    Kildale, I have 22 photos of gnomes and pretties decorating my yard. :eek: How many can you easily accept through an email?

    Three pics for you. The black metal cat is thought to have healing powers... in our garden at least. Every plant we put it by flourishes so we affectionately call it the medicine cat.

    I would love to read this story.

    Things are definately looking good. Just a couple of "please's" Please try to take them horizontal (landscape) so that they all go the same way, easy viewing as I have it all set up for this. The other please is try to keep them big so I can crop as required. Actually, I have a third please, send them by PM so we can keep them secret till the stories ( may have to do two with all these wonderful creations) are done. I will credit the photographer with the name you send with the images. Also I think that I can make the page so the images cannot be copied. Thanks for all these posts. Look forward to receiving them.
