Do we have any idea on the size limits?  On the old forum this was a major trap for the unwary, and I for one stopped entering because of posting problems.  Thanks, Martin

Guess the Place

It was suggested to me by Johnfilmer that we resurrect the Guess the Place game from the old Forum. John also suggested some rules, which I'm more than happy with, so here are the rules:


1) You should use your own photos or those old ones, postcards, newspaper or other illustrations to which you have access without copyright infringement.
2) Do not post screenshots from internet mapping such as Google Street View unless previously agreed due to mobility problems.
3) Once the location of the picture is correctly guessed, and the person who posted it agrees, then the winner should post their own photo, preferably within a day. It is best to have a picture ready if taking part.
4) The person posting the photo must be prepared to answer guesses reasonably promptly, many people are unable to do so at work, this is not itself a problem. However, if a poster goes AWOL for an unreasonable period the other players can agree on a replacement poster to continue.
5) The Admin (or Moderator - when they're sorted out)'s decision is final.


I have no pictures at the moment worth adding, so I'll leave it to m'learned friends to go with it.....
