Good evening folks!
Enclosed is my second attempt at uploading pictures to the forum. I made a promise many moons ago that I would learn how to do this and with the help of Ray and Bill, I think it's going to work this time! Maybe I will get so good at it that I will post pictures quite often! Wish me luck!
The fly is an Isonychia Nymph with due credit for it's design and recipe to everyone's hero, Walt Dette! I stuck pretty much to the orig. recipe and I did the photo's myself which is another story altogether! Thanks for your patience Ray and Bill in teaching an old dog some new tricks!

Doug.
Put the images in one at a time. The file needs to be a .jpg file type. (Others may work, but for now we will stick with that.)
Ray has added a tutorial to the "Reference" forum that is excellent! It will be of more help than I could at this point, actually.
By-the-way, nice pictures, and very nice flies.

Doug - Please try again, but be sure to choose a file with an extension .jpg, instead of .zip. Your initial post contained a ZIP file (compressed file containing multiple images). You need to upload the picture files individually.
You can do it!

Dougie, from what little I know of Iso's - you do good work!
Now, you owe it to the rest of us to get this photo posting guff sorted- such wonderful ties can not be kept in the dark.

Thanks Everyone and especially Ray and Bill,
Ray and Bill, I copied your tutorials and followed them to the "T" except for the .jpg file thing. I understand what happened so the only thing to do is try it again! I need to go photograph some others and then experiment!
Wayne, thanks again for what you did! And Hank, I will perfect practice for sure. Just imagine all the fun I have missed by not doing this earlier!
I need to find a decent backdrop. Any suggestions? Color? Design or texture?
Thanks again to everyone!
