    Hi all,

    I recently picked up a small bronze goat from a thrift store in Rome. It has a thick patina and some heavy corrosion in a few areas.

    Wondering if it might be a very old, possibly Roman era bronze. Or should I have it looked at by a local antique dealer?

    You should have been using the Upload a File button and Full Image. Are your pic files on your computer?

    No, my phone, and I saw the upload size limit, so I tried the cloud image and embedding method. Strange that I see them generate in preview but not the post.

    It would be like hot linking a picture from photo bucket. (I think, LOL)

    I got one picture small enough to load directly to the board simply by cropping the excess background away. The first two links I cropped but couldn't quite get the pictures under one megabyte.

    I'm afraid I am not familiar with "hot linking" from photo bucket. Haven't used photobucket in probably 10 years? Maybe longer.

    EDIT: I can't make the hot link method work either.

    Email the photos to yourself in size Medium. The mailed images will be small enough to upload.
