HI Robert! Thanks for that comment. I'm just not sure how to add a photo to an event. I've added the Blarney card to the profile, but I'm not sure if that's what you're requesting.

Hello Robert, am having a bit of trouble uploading a photo onto my profile.
Sarah Bodman tried to help but to no avail, so she suggested that I contact you.
The image is a jpg. 584kb from a folder.
Sorry that I have not been very involved in your wonderful website, but I have now finished 2nd year fine arts at Griffith in Queensland , so I will be able to be a bit more active.
I really appreciate what you have set up, it is wonderful.
Warmest regards,
Christopher Hardwick
Yikes Robert - its me again. Came across this website which might be of interest for this website You will know where best to place it. The website is in German but of course people can go through Google website translator
Hi Robert I just happened to wander on here today and was pleased to see thta you had organised the installation of the Paypal Donate button application I was on my firefox browser and couldnt see the button when I clicked on the link to it. Only a share button which didnt do anything. I had to go into another browser "safari" and then it was fine. Just thought you might like to know about this. I hope the money builds up fairly quickly. Best wishes
It would be great to annonce it as an event- might be a bit late now- plus I'm not the most technically minded person- so not sure how to do that. Also I think I just found a virus in my computer - so by the time I work that our- it will be all over.
Thank you and may be once I do the follow up 6 weeks course in a few weeks - I'll ask for help listing it
cheers

Thanks Robert, your message is actually the first I had heard of winning! It never occured to me to look on the Artspace website to see the results! Wish I could have been there, but luckily Tokyo is a nice alternative location!
