Okay so like I am totally lazy when it comes to clicking, so I figured I would post this to help anyone else as lazy as I am in being able to more easily see the choices and thus be able to decide who to vote for without having to do extra mouse clicks (because omg, yeah I'm like lazy that way LOL) ... hope that is okay!

Thanks, Alyssa, much better and thanks for teaching me a new trick.

No prob!

In this type of forum there are a couple ways of using that,

If you highlight the url for the image and then click the "image" button (the button underneath the bold button) it will put the code in brackets around what you have highlighted.

If you hover over those buttons, a little pop up will open telling you what each button does.

If you just click the image button, it will just add in the image code tags into the posting window and then you can c & p the image url in between the code tags.

And the preview option (at the bottom of the posting window) will allow you to see your post to see if the image urls worked before you commit to actually submitting the post to the forum.

I adore the perfect shape and intense colour, so wheatguy's Red Jasper does it for me this time round.

Thank you Asianfire!  I do really appreciate that.  I had never tried a heart before...don't know if I will again or not.  I have some fire agate btw, and am not brave enough to even play with it yet, so what you did with yours is truly amazing.

Thank you all for the vote of confidence.....
Love that all the pieces received close to the same number of votes as they all deserved to take the honours.

Fun fact too, that this is my smallest entry ever in close to 7 years.........
