Hi guys,
Trying to upload some pics from photobucket,not having much success,anybody know the best way? saying files are invalid or too large

copy and paste the image [img] code into the thread instead of uploading the url and it should work.If not you can edit the pic with photobucket and make the picture smaller.Hope this helps mate

well you seem to have the knack of posting the pics nailed now! Pond looks nice - garden look huge! Between the koi pond and the size of your garden - your going to be skint by christmas lol; i find both an endless blackhole in which to throw my hard earned money!

Skint by christmas you reakon,budget blown on pond already,saving for some fish

I agree that ponds are a money pit, but well worth it.
