Hi, The two posts shown about (by Merna) were trials and error posts that I made from her computer. I thought I could easily delete them from my end..but I can't figure that one out. The image has been entered in BP competitions and club competitions and I believe deleting the image will also remove it from the competitions. I'm so sorry Merna. #8474943
