This is one of my favourite photos of all time. It's a famous one, I think from Time magazine. It's a young Afghan girl from the eighties.

I can just see the mods racing to bury this photo...

I can't see why, unless your last unnecessary sentence provokes a response that turns into a load of name-calling
It is a beautiful picture

It just seems the photos disappear down a black hole somewhere. No problem with that, just wish they'd do it after a couple of days to give folk who aint seen these photos a chance to see them. I'd like to think that there are young kids seeing these photos and they might, just might develop a liking of their history.

Ha, who am I kidding...

Can I suggest you you click on my stuff(yours) and look at your posts and make a list of which pictures have disappeared and pm Mark (who may be unaware that they've gone) and he will look into it and tell you why.
Please keep posting your pics. there have been some really good ones.

I think you will find that they are not 'disappearing', just being sorted into the correct running threads. Each time one is moved a pointer (black arrow on the left of the post) remains for ten days which takes you to the new location of the picture

I love the old pics of Wirral, the latest one's of New Brighton are fascinating, especially seeing where the pier and ferry used to be :0)

'That' picture above Pablo is beautiful. Stunningly beautiful.

Have you got her on your wall somewhere?

No, I seen it, in I'm sure it was Time magazine. It won loads of awards. I was in Afghanistan in the eighties and it always reminded me of that time

In that case you should have her on your wall smile
