I can see the likeness...

The difference is that Jackie is several orders of magnitude more talented...

Sorry, I was unable to follow up until now, but can't find any new mail in that inbox. Did the email bounce?

No, it didn't bounce. I checked ~24 hours after sending though I haven't checked again today. And I sent it using the same email address I used to register on this forum, talktalk.

My emails are all on a steam-powered laptop so I'll just go fire it's boiler and check again (when it's finally booted up).

Just checked my email again and sure enough there's a bounce notification. It said it gave up re-trying to deliver it after 24.9 hours.

I've zipped the two pics and uploaded them here, if you'd like to download them. https://anonfile.com/odicRfb4b9/Photos.zip

There is something very strange about those images Mike.
I have dragged them into the message box and there is no option to "Place Inline" as with others and the example above.

I used GIMP to export this as a .jpg and then found I was able to post it.

Something strange indeed there Steve, I'm not so sure I can level the blame at my photos at this point though - they're off a ZTE Blade Lite android phone and have used it for photos on other sites without an issue.
btw, I used the FULL EDITOR/ATTACHMENTS option, rather than drag and drop.
