But maybe even those wouldn't have been suitable for you I use photobucket.com for my photos. You can register for a free account there, then upload your photos, resize them to 800 x 600 or smaller and then copy the IMG link in here. Re: patio area 8Nov 28, 2009 5:13 pm It looks really nice but I can see why it gets so hot. Looks like fans and air con is going to be your only option. If you use the IMG Code for the photos they will show up on this page (see below) Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Blog: http://bluemistkids.blogspot.com "Never be afraid to try something new.

Re: patio area 13Mar 08, 2010 8:35 pm It's looking really great I love the rock wall and the windows look great with the blinds. It's a shame that you need to do the insulated ceiling, but that would be the best way to stop it from getting too hot. Blog: http://bluemistkids.blogspot.com "Never be afraid to try something new.
