Dear Folks,
Anyone who would like to include an image on a posting can do it two ways.
1. If you send me a jpg (preferably, although I can deal with other formats), I'll put it onto a web address to which you can create a link in your message.
2. If you don't have a scanned image, I can make a scan from a photo (slide or snapshot), put it into a web address to wich you can create a link in your message.
As for whether our Salon is an appropriate place for it, that depends on the topic. On the other hand, our Virtual Show and Tell is much less structured, and anyone who'd like open discussion on any piece is welcome to put it there. While we expect the comments to be directed at judging the rug, not the owner (and will delete postings that are uncivil), it would not be wise to post a rug if negative comments about it will distress you. I've learned from reviewing auctions that many people would be less offended by negative comments about their kids than about their rugs.
