This is really cool. Kevin is using this one on the site now isn't he? I can see why, it's well done indeed.
-

this has got my mind working on a write to use it with lol

this is very cool! I am doing a column featuring a number of things around the site including backgrounds, and I'd like to include a few of yours which I will of course credit to you, if you have no objections? also, could you give me detailed (step by step) instructions on creating a rollover picture link to an audio file and posting it here? I have photoshop, which I know can do that, but I don't know how to do it, I want to use it to feature some audio poetry on my column. Thanks!

Thank you, DK! That would be lovely, be my guest
As a Gold member it is very easy using the Rich text editor to add links to music files etc.
To add a link to an audio file, it first needs to be hosted on a webpage somewhere. I have most of mine on my free putfile.com account.
To make an image or text a clickable link, simply highlight the image or text in edit then click on the link icon (the little chainlink to the left of the editor icons) which opens a pop-up.
In the pop up box you simply add the URL of the link ->
The 'target': to 'open in new window' ->
Then, if you want a description tag on hover, add a Title then 'update'.

Yep, will do
Cool, huh - I even learned some basic html (online tutorials) for posting on forums that don't have all the automatic Rich mode stuff we get on AP. 
-
Oh boy, I get to listen to Ms. Newton! That linking to a graphic stuff is cool. Next time I have a Gold thingie you have to show me how to do that. The Dummy way I mean.

Lovely The queen looks a little sad I wonder
if it is because the king can beat her at cards?
((snag)) -
Thank you, Jo
Be my guest, that's what this contest is for -sharing backgrounds. I have an open invitation in the note there
-
strange how I came to ask a background from you just the other day, Maat and now this Border Contest comes up! Knowing my obsession, this is like border paradise to me, but I'd never grab-up without asking first, so would you mind? I'll give you complete credit should I use it for a poem...
I even love the shadowed background you used with this border--Very creative!
Jo -
Hehehe! You amaze me how you always find something interesting to say, even on a background! You know, I don't think I know Juice Newton, but I do know that song & like it - I can hear it in my head now
-
I'm hearing Juice Newton in my noggin. "Playing with the Queen of Hearts, knowing that it really smarts, cause the joker is the only fool, who'll do anything for you." Did I just break an AP law by quoting too much? I don't think Juice Newton would mind, I bet I'm the only person who thought about her today...and that includes her own mother!
Sorry.
Would be a good background for either a romance, or one of my horribly written ironic fictions. I mean, who couldn't run with a story about a woman knicknamed, "The Queen of Hearts."
For an encore I will now recite another of Juice Newton's biggest hits...oh wait...there weren't any more (as I'm sure her mother reminds her on the days she remembers Juice exists.)
I know, "Get out of here Yem!"

This probably would come in handy for some obscure theme sometime and then I will be kicking myself for not having saved it. LOL.
-
Cool as ...
This is one I would take a punt on. Thank you Gennelle. -
Thanks, suseann I have 7 others in this contest
-
So,the queen of hearts is always your best friend.Or is that only in poker games.Pretty cool.~~Suseann
-
I certainly hope so! Been waiting for some more to join in
-
This is a creative idea, Gen! Do you mind if I join the fun?
-
Oh, this would be perfect for some of those metaphoric poems, or for poems about gambling
