| My daughter and I have been in our new house for a little over a year now. I am ready to research putting in retaining wall(s) in the slope in my back (side) yard. I have some ideas from photos posted here and at other sites on the internet (as well as from magazines and mom!). I would like to utilize the upper corner of the slope for a "sun deck" of some kind (putting lounge chairs up there) because the view from there is great! I also want to have room for not only flowering plants and shrubs but some veggies as well. Any help? Please!! I'm not sure how to submit my photos... I'll work on this. |

| I haven't ever posted photos, but here are GW's instructions on how to do so: http://faq.gardenweb.com/faq/lists/pepper/2002072150000611.html This forum (Landscape Design) is one that does not allow direct posting of photos (it has no gallery), so you'll need an account with a photo-hosting site like Photobucket. Do you have any idea how high a wall you'll need? |

| ok, here's a try at linking my backyard photos using PhotoBucket. I was thinking about two walls, each about 3 feet... but I don't want to do the boring "straight across the back" trellising. http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af262/stacysu/landscaping ideas/ house1.jpg http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af262/stacysu/landscaping ideas/ photo3.jpg http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af262/stacysu/landscaping ideas/ photo2.jpg http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af262/stacysu/landscaping ideas/ photo4.jpg |

| stacysu, when I highlight one of your addresses with my Firefox add-on (as if I were trying to post an image), it adds this before the address: [img src=" and this after the address: Yes, there's a blank space in each one of those sets of symbols. Replace the brackets I used above ([ ]) with these symbols instead (< >). When you finish writing your post, click on the Preview Message button below the message box. If you got the code right, the image(s) will show up in the preview. |
|
| To input your jpg image just use code like below except at the beginning of the phrase you input < img src="http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af262/stacysu/landscaping i deas/house1.jpg"
