    Hello Fellas Stand To Attention

    At Melbourne Zoo I met this stout gentleman nicely decked out. His mates, I'm not so sure of.

    Do you have an image with its eye open that is just as good as this one in the other aspects?

    Mike, it does look like his eye is closed. It is actually wide open. That, of cause, was just luck.

    I suppose the reason I can't tell the eye is open is because you're posting such a small image file. It would be helpful to appreciate your image if you would post a larger file.

    Mike, I am doing something wrong. I thought by setting the size to, say 1600 long and 800 high, it should work. I am pretty much a book person not a computer person. I cannot even run a mobile phone (and I do not want to).

    Ole...I am glad you got to get these fellas without any window reflections. The gentleman looks snooty...very nice shot. Are these ones from the Melbourne Zoo different from the ones in the Aquatic centre?

    Hi Ole,

    You might have uploaded that size to Flickr, but the link you posted here was for the 640 px size

    Let's see if I can fix it ...

    Here's the method to vary the picture size after building a url (by uploading an image) - we need "_h" at the end (just before ".jpg"), so let's try that ...

    Hmmm, that's odd, a blank image in every size option except the one I originally saw it in.

    Did you move the image within your flickr site?
    I ask because that's often what causes an issue like this.

    That said, I just checked you on Flickr - you have no albums (so it's not been moved), but the penguin image is not visible at all in your photostream, perhaps it somehow got deleted shortly after upload?
    Anyone that happened to view while it was there can still see it*, but anyone new to view, or using a different size, cannot.

    * That's due to Internet and/or Browser caching at work.

    You'll need to upload it again I'm afraid.

    HTH, Dave
