A Little Hint--finding photos
Most everyone has probably already figured this out but it never occurred to me until I wanted to find a photo. So, if you haven't thought of it please learn from my experience:
We have A LOT of beautiful quilts that flash by on the slideshow on the main page. Every once in awhile I click on one to get a better look. Well, I just spent the last three evenings going through pages and pages of photos looking for a quilt I remembered seeing, oh, probably a month ago. We're approaching 800 pages of photos and I finally found what I was looking for in the 400's. I couldn't remember enough about it to search by keyword--believe me I tried! LOL!
So, if you see a picture you think you EVER might want to refer to again here's a little hint. When you click on the picture there is a little "add to favorites" button down below you can click. Then it will be in your favorites and will save you a bunch of time...trust me!
On a side note...while browsing all those pages I found a bunch more to add to my favorites. You are all so inspiring! Thanks for sharing all your masterpieces!

When I click on a picture in the slideshow, it doesn't go anywhere. I would like to complement the owner, but was wondering what I was doing wrong.

Comment by Paula/TX,LA on June 12, 2009 at 3:40pm - Thanks for the info on the pictures. I had looked at all of them in the early weeks of CT and there were so many then. Just to think this website in only a baby and all the activity is unfathomable. I am sure there is so much still here that is unused due to some of us being almost computer illiterate - like me. Thanks again.

Comment by Sunshine/Mi on June 12, 2009 at 12:53pm - yeah, how do you find your favorites list? I was clicking 'add to favorites' until I realized I didn't know how to find them once they were added.

Comment by BrightStar on June 12, 2009 at 12:37pm - but where is the button to look at your favorites list?
