Hi folks,
I am new to the Orchid Forum and I'm from Trinidad & Tobago.
I have some Orchids.
I love not just the blooms but also the plants.
I am interested in many aspects of the Orchid ; Rearing & Crossing.
I hope to share what I know and learn what I don't.

awaxa

Hi Awaxa, welcome to the forum. You wil find lots of advice from the good people who make up the forum. They also enjoy chatting about things other than orchids. Do not be shy of asking questions.

Bill

Thank you Prisana,
I can suggest getting her to smell the beautiful fragrance of maybe a cattleya that has one of her favorite colors.

Thanks kmarch for the welcome.
Can you indicate where I can get some information on reducing the size of my photo to be used to represent me in the Forum?
I am new to photo editing and I am having trouble reducing the photo that I want to use to the required 150 X 150 pixels or 64 Kb.
Thanks in advance.

when you upload your pics in the image program you should be able to select your pic sizes in the image program.

I have 7 sizes in the image program that i use ( photobucket )

please let me know how you go
