It might be "get bent" with the "get" wrapping around the post.

I think you've got it. I can see the left edge of the letter "t" form the word "get" and the "bent" is obvious in the close up. Good job, Bill. I figured it had to be something funny, but couldn't make it out.

One of these days, if I ask very nicely, maybe you will reveal the secret to zooming in on a picture neophyte like myself.

If you just want to zoom in on a photo, IE 7.0 has that option built in. Down in the bottom right hand corner of the browser is a button to zoom in on a web page or photo. It's not the greatest and the pictures might be rather pixilated. But it can be handy. I think you use Firefox and I don't know if that is in there but it probably is.

For actually editing the photos you will need a piece of software. The Paint program that comes with Windows isn't much use.

I use Paint Shop Pro. Photoshop Elements is also good and not too expensive. A free one that they say is really good is GIMP. GIMP - The GNU Image Manipulation Program But I don't know too much about it because I like PSP. Anyway, I just cropped the photo, then expanded it enough to make it clearer, but not so much that it became too pixilated, and then put it on Photobucket.

I suggest you download GIMP and give it a try.

Your digital camera might have come with something that would work too.

GIMP is an appropriate acronym when related to my computer skills.Sounds like it's right up my alley.
