Jack- you are using the 'TAG' line in the Photobucket server. You should be using the 'Img' line.
You need nothing else other that what is in the third box down in Photobucket. You don't type anything. Just drag it off of Photobucket, if you can keep both screens open. Or you can cut and paste the line into you forum message. It should be like this...
Bracket [the word 'IMG' in here] the Photobucket location here [closing bracket with backslash/IMG]
you don't type it though just drag it or copy paste it. Try again

Love the critters too! I seen a picture somewhere of little bug rocks and so far thats the only thing I've really done with my finished rocks (I won't talk about the gem tree), my little nephew loves them.
Looks like your wife has an excellent selection of rocks to work with.

Jack, nice looking batch of rocks ya' got there! Nice shine on them. What are the orangy-pink ones on the bottom row? I love that color! Love the wife's critters! Too cute. Reminds me of the mom. She used to make rock critters - birds and turtles mostly - and would paint them. I had a really cool turtle door stop until the flood came along and he joined the rest of the turtles in the creek! Unfortunately, he couldn't resurface, so will spend his life on the bottom of the creek/river somewhere! Are those bails she uses for the leg? llana

Very very nice Jack. Your wife's creations are great. Where does she get those nice bracelets? Those would be great for using up the smaller stones.

I just saw some critters like that yesterday. I was able to turn them over and on these the legs were 4-6 prong bell caps, inverted. Very inexpensive that way, I would think. And you can get bracelets like that from KingsleyNorth. Jack, That's What I'm Talking about! (american expression, meaning "that's a great idea") Do you buy your necklaces in bulk? That's the one thing holding me back from doing more than pendents, the cost of the necklaces. Beautiful stones, beautiful pendents. Well done! How are they selling?

Hey Jack. Very nice work. The stones are beautiful by themselves, and then your wife does them a step better. I too, like Rocky and his friends. Very cool.

Hi Cookie,
Thanks for the comments , my wife gets the "Finding's" (necklaces, bracelets, broach, clips,)from the above supplier( PJMinerals), or Manchester Minerals UK,
But I would say you have a better supplier in the States, Try a search for jewelry findings or jewelry components, there are hundreds around ,
Probaly someone else ,can help as regards a good reliable cost efective firm, to supply findings in USA.
Yours. Jack, Yorkshire UK.
