Time for the OLDIES..

[raynaputi]

Do you have photos of yourself/partner when you/they were younger? There's an ongoing trend in Facebook & Instagram posting old photos every Thursday, called "#throwbackthursday" (although it's a Friday today, I would post this thread :biggrin:). So I think we can have something like here..:Rasp: It's good to reminisce some old memories..anyway, below is just a few of my younger days..hahahaha..:icon_lol:

1 yr-old me

I think I'll leave it to my lady to post hers, if she wants to (was very cute, as all Filipinas are :smile:).

I'll go and have a look for some of me.

Awww...Peter, you were a bouncing baby boy! So cute! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Sweet_Mazza, I wish I have photos of me with my dad when I was younger..sad to say most of our photos when we were younger were burnt when we had a fire where we live. The ones that were saved where photos that my grandparents kept while we were growing up..thanks for posting your cute photo. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Graham, your son really got your looks! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

I don't think I can post Keith's photos when he was younger (his mum has it all)..he might take my laptop away from me..hahahaha..:icon_lol: although I've seen them when I asked his mum to show me his photos..:biggrin:

[Michael Parnham]

Wow how nice, sorry haven't got a single photo of me, had a few dozen but my ex never gave me anything that belonged to me apart from my birth cert and my medical history unfortunately, I would have loved to have had some photo's!:cwm25:

[Arthur Little]

Hmm :icon_rolleyes: ... I'd love to put some of my old photos on here too, but alas ... :anerikke: ... I don't have a clue how to go about it! :NoNo:

BTW..Just taken the 5 minutes required to work it out.

[Rosie1958]

Hmm :icon_rolleyes: ... I'd love to put some of my old photos on here too, but alas ... :anerikke: ... I don't have a clue how to go about it! :NoNo:

Arthur, here's a copy of some advice I received from Doc Alan about posting photos on the forum, hope it helps you too :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Photobucket is recommended for posting photos on the Forum

( http://filipinaroses.com/sh...-Your-Pictures ).

Once you have uploaded your photos on Photobucket, when viewing them, you will see on the right hand side " Links to share this photo? ". Left click on " IMG " for each photo, then paste that link to your Forum post. The photo(s) should then appear after you complete your post.

[Doc Alan]

Following on from Rosie's post ( the link didn't work ), a few members ( as well as Arthur ) have mentioned difficulty in posting photos on the Forum. I’m sure there are many quality photos which you would like to post here.


• Ideally if starting from basics it’s best to ask someone you know to explain while they’re with you. However, assuming you have been able to save photos ( often referred to as images ) on your computer, then use Photobucket for any you wish to share on the Forum.



• http://www.photobucket.com

• Click on “ Upload “ then “ Choose photos & videos “.


• Select the photo you wish to copy from your computer by “ left clicking “ on it.


* Once you have uploaded your photos on Photobucket, when viewing them, you will see on the right hand side " Links to share this photo? ". Left click on " IMG " ( Image ) for each photo, then paste that link to your Forum post. The photo(s) should then appear after you complete your post.

Hope this helps :xxgrinning--00xx3:!

Talking about little probs here, I'm no longer getting automatic emails in reply to the threads I've contributed...I noticed this early hours of today.

[grahamw48]

Thanks Mark.

I've regretted a few things in my life, but never for one second have I ever regretted helping to create such a wonderful son. :)

[gWaPito]

Thanks Mark.

I've regretted a few things in my life, but never for one second have I ever regretted helping to create such a wonderful son. :)

This is exactly how I look upon it now.

Without my moments of perceived madness I wouldn't have my 2 beautiful innocent bundles of joy before my very eyes.

Yes, folks with limited life experiences can judge and say whatever ...you cld argue with these ignoramus types forever and a day. .I know, I've done it :biggrin:

We know better than that, don't we Graham:biggrin:

[Terpe]

I'll never admit to having any regrets. Period.

I do have some misgivings though.
Yes, semantics.... but important to me.

[Rosie1958]

I've really enjoyed looking at ALL of the photos in this thread, it's amazing how people haven't really changed from their early days! Here's a photo of me aged 14 dressed up for a school play in 1973 :smile:

:icon_lol::icon_lol: Thanks Graham, she's about 74 now! Must be the hair and eyebrows, although we all looked similar in the 1970s

[grahamw48]

I didn't mean NOW Rosie ! :icon_sorry::icon_lol:

Yep....even I looked like that in 1973...but with a tash. :laugher:

[Rosie1958]

LOL ....... I know what you meant Graham and will take it as a compliment (I didn't have a tash though) ! :laugher: Ali McGraw actually starred in the very famous film Love Story in 1973 which I remember going to see in Hong Kong so it would have been at the same time :xxgrinning--00xx3:

[grahamw48]

Yes of course, one of my favourite movies at the time Rosie. Classic. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

The Graduate was another. :smile:

Talking of which, my best friend has recently bought a beautiful 'Alfa Romeo Spider', in red, as driven in the movie by Dustin Hoffman.

Thank you gWaps, so nice of you to say so. Your childhood photo looks so sweet and your facial features haven't changed much at all, can still see you there!

It's good to sound 'blonde' every now and then Rosie. .A definite icebreaker :icon_lol:

It's the focusing ..in your example, your background is out of focus while you are in. ..normally instants put everything in focus. .it's a compromise. .nowadays SLR's are as simply to use as the instamatics of yesteryear. :smile:
