  1. I like your captions very much. Your slide shows look like movies. Here's your Grace picture reduced to 400 x 650:
  2. The man from uncle series certainly aren't "movies" and they aren't "classic movies".
  3. You have to change the numbers on the code to change the size and shape of the photo. Leave spaces where the code shows spaces. Use left arrow to start the code and right arrow to end it. Place the url address right after the first = sign.
  4. Ok, here's the secret "reduce in size" code: <img src=http://i21.tinypic.com/9zr7n7.jpg height =300 width =425>
  5. Here's one I just did from "Stairway to Heaven"
  6. Your screen captures are very good. What kind of a program do you use to capture them?
  7. At the end of about one screen-width of type, just hit "Enter" and that will give you a paragraph break. To type a sentence on a post with a photo, type the text then type the code: left arrow BR right arrow But use the arrow symbols < and the right one (can't type the right one here because that is a code to give me a quote box) Put the letters BR in-between the left and right arrows. That will give you a paragraph break before showing the picture. You can separate photos that way too, by using the left arrow BR right arrow code in-between them.
  8. How strange. That's the zip code for Cannon Airforce Base in New Mexico. http://www.brainyzip.com/zipcodes/88/88103.html Are you on someone's "watch" list?
  9. Ok, I think they are: Jeanette MacDonald, Sally Blane and Joyce Compton "Annabelle's Affairs", 1931 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0021610/maindetails
  10. From IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0826479/bio Born in Russia to a Ukrainian father and a Swedish mother, Anna studied at the Film Academy and joined the Moscow Art Theater. Strikingly beautiful, Anna went on to appear in a number of Russian silent films. But it was in the German film version of "The Brothers Karamazov (1931) that Anna gained notice. Sam Goldwyn saw a picture of Anna in the paper and rushed to view the film. After the first reel, he sent word to sign her, hoping to sign a star like Garbo or Dietrich. His agent did sign Anna to a contract but forgot to mention the fact that Anna did not speak a word of English, which made her appearance in sound pictures questionable. Anna spent a year studying English every day and working out makeup and acting. Goldwyn publicity called Anna "The Passionate Peasant" and sold her image to papers all over America. But her first picture, Nana (1934), even though rewritten and reshot from the original, did not bring people to the box office. While Anna was reportedly good looking, the script and picture were average. Her second film, We Live Again (1934), while marginally better suited to her style, also died within weeks at the box office. After her third film for Goldwyn, called The Wedding Night (1935), Anna and Goldwyn parted company after the movie became known around Hollywood as "Goldwyn's Last Sten." Anna made a few more movies, but by the end of the decade she was forgotten.
  11. Ha! Barbara Stanwyck and Joan Blondell in "Night Nurse"!
  12. You are right. What happened to her? Why isn't she more famous?
  13. The entire movie is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2d0dWoqF8W0 (Sorry about the Spanish sub-titles.)
  14. Strange that we sometimes don?t recognize some of our favorite actresses because of costumes or makeup. Thanks for the good clue.
  15. THE WEDDING MARCH 1928 Fay Wray plays Maria Francesca
  16. Dang, is that Fay Wray??
  17. I think they were shown in theaters in Senegal, Namibia, and a few other countries that didn?t have any TV sets.
  18. Hey, when you guys type a lot of stuff here on a thread with big pictures on it, why don't you insert paragraph breaks in your text so your lines will show up like this instead of like this: This is an example of a long sentence that doesn't have any paragraph breaks inserted into it, and you see what happens with the long lines when they show up on these photo threads.
  19. These are TV shows. I don't remember them being shown in theaters.
  20. Liz Claiborne, Playtex, and Victoria?s Secret.
  21. Well, just think... some day in the future, with automorphing multi screen-caps and autoreanimation, plus blended audiofreq morphs and sound simulators, you will be able to make your own movie right on your own home computer, using your favorite stars of the past.
  22. dred, I think the film rentals are cheaper by the dozen.
