Easy fix, just copy the IMG code of your photobucket picture and then paste it into your post. No need to bother with the whole "insert image" rigamarole :)
Great shot btw!

My blue jacket and waistcoat are back from the dry-cleaner's. Gonna take them out with me tonight when I go for dinner with friends...

I apologise for the goofy angle, but I couldn't look straight at the camera otherwise it'd slice half my face off. This seemed a good enough compromise.

And sitting...

I figured I could wear a sky blue, light grey or red tie with this outfit. Changed it to the sky-blue one after taking these photos...

Had another fun day on the Hawaiian Railroad.

Wearing that Critiden action back sporcoat fellow Lounger Tomasso let us know about, a Panama from Panama Bob, vintage deco tie, some linen/rayon blend trousers, and my spectators.

We surely have some gorgeous ladies and handsome men in this thread! Shangas, I'm in love with the color palette you've got going on there - looks great! Odalisque, how I envy your curves, woman! I'm just one big round lump on two sticks! lol

I have no pictures at the moment of what I'm wearing today, but it's a grey cap-sleeve blouse with eyelet lace peter pan collar, a red/black/grey plaid wool skirt and saddle oxfords.

Thanks Mae Croft! I eventually ditched the grey tie (I felt it melted into the shirt and became invisible) and replaced it with a patterned sky blue one instead that I reckoned stood out better against the shirt and went better with the colour of the jacket and waistcoat. I also changed the jewellery and replaced the watch-chain you see there with a double albert chain instead. Got a couple of good compliments at dinner out with friends :p

Shangas - I agree that the grey tie was a bit light (not Vegas Mafia light, but still, bit hard to see) - handsome even without the change, though now I'm scared to cross you because of your mob connections! ;)

Ahh Derek, spoken like a man who's never seen me. lol

Thank you Derek WC, this is a good pic of what an almost 53yo woman and a 63yo automobile look like! The Dodge Deluxe Fluid Drive needs a new paint job to cover that primer gray- the current owner believes the original color of the car was a cream color. Me- I've got my warpaint (face makeup) on!

Like the coat and panama, Chasseur. Very good combination. :eusa_clap

Looking good, chanteuseCarey. :)

Hahahahaha!! Mob connections. Yeah. Let me get my violin case and a couple of drum-mags and I'll meet you in the Buick outside.

...where's my spats gone...

I think I'll wear the same getup to work and see what the others think. I've gained a reputation at the shop as a sharp dresser...

Oh phooey-anyone able to help a gal out?? I apparently cannot do anything on my photobucket other than a "Copied" thing... sigh. Been so long since I posted a pic on FL I've forgotten how! I know the new version of FL is more whiz-bang, but I now cannot figure out how to post a pic.

If you can take the detail of the pic from photobucket on my previous post, edit it, and thereby the pic able to be seen I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Use Flickr.com It is more involved but works every time.
