When spam is removed, you get a situation like that.

I am! Don't know how to do a screen shot, but the pop up ads are popping over the text and pictures in the thread responses and I can't read what people are posting or see their pictures unobtructed. The ads in motion are so annoying! Also still can't get email notices of replies to threads I've posted in even though I've checked the box to allow that. Even more annoying.

Are you trying to format it in the camera? JoanMN

"Overplant and thin later." I do not, and have not advocated that approach, but I see it is common in the industry. It would not be hard to imagine how this could come about. There is a receptive clientele that wants instant gratification. Plant sales generate income. Large budgets generate prestige. Etc.,, etc. In the town where I live we have a new, SMALL public park with a fountain at the center. I read in the local paper that the budget was about $440K. After studying the finished product I was practically horrified. The fountain is nice, but too noisy. The planting is absolutely, positively, overwhelmingly STUFFED with material. The space for walking is the pathways and plaza for the fountain. The green space is too full for anyone to enter. (At least there'll be some good hiding places for muggers in a few months!) They will be removing -- and throwing away -- material for the next 20 years. It's going to be a maintenance nightmare of trimming that a small town budget cannot afford. This is how politicians get glory by obtaining federal funds for their constituents. What a waste! Even though you don't live here, you probably paid a little each for our puny park. @ I pinkmountain ... I don't understand who you are saying is "hot and bothered" and who is making the "off-hand comment." ....??? Thus, not getting your point.
