the image attachment fails to load at my end.

 

ditto on this end susan. I just see a tiny tiny image. But it's definitely a stinkhorn of some kind.

 

All that was uploaded was the tiny image.. if the image is too small, you can't click through to see a larger one.

 

the click through is not working this time.
