Seems unremarkable to me, apart from the picture in question being
somewhat smaller than the referring url.

Nice, I love HDR.
I tend to really push the HDR so its quite OTT. Not everyones taste
admittedly, a bit like marmite but hey ho!

Can't think why you bothered.

Well, a bit back, there was a bit of a rebellion here against tinyurls etc.
It may have been newsreader snobbery, as mine can't handle wrapped urls.
They **** me off, as I have to copy and paste them.

Hmm, Whitby eh? Mate of mine just sold his house there. Too grim. And too
many grockles apparently.

Err no. Cheltenham.

You put up a link that said Cheltenham Badlands, so I put up a link to
Badlands in Cheltenham.

I thought for once I'd done something straightforward and easily
understood. Apparently not

Yes I know. But the link also pointed to your (or sombody's) photo
collection, which included photos of Whitby.

The main thrust of my point was the sadly small size of the referred
picture - I mean, if somebody has gone to the lengths of compiling a 54-
shot HDR picture, why reproduce it as a large postage stamp?

As to tinyurls, I think it was the worksurfers who were concerned about
what may have been concelaed behind an anonymous url. This can be
offset by presenting the review function, which doesn't automatically
take the viewer straight to the concealed url, but asks first, having
revealed the real destination.

Having changed newsreaders a couple of times recently, it brings home
how differently they deal with things, and it seems difficult to get to
a size that fits all. Xnews and XanaNews would have taken taht url in
their strides, but Gravity would only click the top line, leaving me to
c'n'p the second line - which is, as you observe, a PITA. Some readers
leave such urls unwrpped, where others insist on breaking them.

Meh. Post and be damned, innit - by 50% of the available readership,
and usually by me ;-)
