I have tried to post google links in the Morning Glory forum that have long adresses but they wont work, all I get is the blank google page to show up on preview when I test if the links work.

Janett, I noticed that same problem a while back. I don't know if it's our system that is "breaking" the links because they're too long, or if Google has something on their side that prevents long links from being copied and posted elsewhere.

Guess that's a question for Dave when he gets the new server completely stable and all the photos transferred ;o)

I know that Dave expander the number of "allowed" letters in a link before.Since then he has changed the server so I guess that is what needs to be done again. I can wait :0)) just wanted him to know.

For those who may not know, and to use on not only Dave's board, but
all internet sites, there is a site called Tiny URL, which is, of course,

http://www.tinyurl.com

You simply type in the huge long address, and the computer generates
a tiny url for you. It's really neat, especially when you have the addies that
are a mile long.
