I hope you don’t mean any country in the West Indies because they do have palm trees there

system · January 21, 2008, 4:18am

Is that a question?

system · January 21, 2008, 4:21am

It is not a question. What I’m trying to say here is that if you had in mind a country in the West Indies, they all have native palm trees there. So I’m just hoping that it was not a mistake on your part. That is the only location at this time that is midnight

lol! It’s 12:30 where I live on the east coast! Sorry about the misunderstanding. The time doesn’t have anything to do with the photo.

Good Job on the city. The beach has a specific name.
Can you tell me both significance? The beach has some cultural significance and I think you found out what the historical significance is for the surrounding area.

Don’t worry, you are the winner of this challenge.

Can someone tell me how to post a site now

system · January 21, 2008, 4:56am

Well done!

So first, find a place that you want to use. Use a significant place (I tend to always go for movies and stuff like that), from History or Science or whatever.

You have two options for the photo:

Find a photo of the place (use google or yahoo images), and attach it to your post.
or
Find the place with Google Earth, take a screenshot, and attach it to your post.

You can even do both.

You can find the “attachment” thing under Additional Options when you make a post.

Remember to strip the picture of all its background information( so that someone cannot find the same file name and info and just search for it on the net.). I use photoshop’s “save for web” feature and change the file name. Maybe someone else has another method.
Then you open a new thread and attach the photo. The attachements are done by clicking “additional options” below the text box in the reply page and browsing to get the photo.
