I had some training in HTML when I lived in the SF Bay Area all those years ago. I'm not an expert but I can see how the code works and tweak it to improve the formatting. Have you worked with HTML coding?Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-82741026047573007652021-06-24T04:59:37.328+02:002021-06-24T04:59:37.328+02:00Ken, I would really love to know how to do this wi...Ken, I would really love to know how to do this with photos.

Very lovely. Too bad if they were crushed by the rain and wind, but there should be more still to come. I'm a fan of the deep pinks in numbers 1 and 4.
