I have a few old photographs that were taken in Sheffield

the photographic studios were;

Maybury - 21 Fargate, Sheffield
G.B Rhodes - Wicker and 31 Crabtree, Sheffield
A.H Taylor - 21 Fargate, Sheffield
T.N Langton - 566 Attercliffe Road, Sheffield
A and G Taylor - 101 Norfolk Street, Sheffield

does anyone know when these places were in business, the dates would help me figure out who are in the photographs

It may be too large. I think the maximum size of a jpeg (assuming that is what you are loading) is about 195kb.

Microsoft has a very easy to use resizer (for Windows XP) at:

Just scroll down till you see Image resizer. When you download it all you need to do to resize the image is right click on it.

Hi Duchess,

There may be something wrong with the attachment file manager.

I have just spent some time playing with it and cannot get any images to load either.

Mind you, I am far from expert with this sort of thing.
