I"ve tried two different titles and despite having done searches and finding nothing like my title - all I get is a message saying that there is a group with a similar name and to try again?????

Unfortunately, all the groups and many of the personal picture galleries don't work anymore.

I think it's OK to start a thread which can fulfill some of the same functions as a group.

thanks Mark
are we on the tail end of this website??? I was trying to get a group going of painters and drawers - now that I'm a lady of leisure I need to get some things happening during the week so I don't go nuts.... took the year off - leave without pay (as I said) but was told last week I have no job to come back to - so VERY early retirement!!!! haha!!
