Pianoloverus,

RE: question: is there a block on your pics, and will you remove it so they can be copied?

I do not beleive I have a block on the pictures. I am new to flickr but will give you what I do know about coping photos from flickr. This procedure that I give here has worked for me when I saved pics before. When you double click on the picture it will open up in a new window. Right click on the picture and it will give you the option to download in various sizes to open the picture up in another window, choose your size and open. In that window you right click once again on the pic and you will have the option to save it.

If this does not work please let me know and I will look for another option.

Thanks,

Pleyelplayer

Is there a way to share my whole photostream including Friends and Family photos?
Yes! First we should mention that the best way to share your photostream is to invite them to create a Flickr account. When they have an account you can mark them as a Friend or Family and they can see any photos that you have marked as such. (This will also let them comment and favourite, which is even more fun.)

But if you know someone that doesn't want to create an account you can still share your Friends and Family photos with them using a Guest Pass for your photostream. Just go to your photostream and select the mail option in the Share menu near the top right of the screen. When you share the stream you will have the option to create a Guest Pass. This will let people see any photos in your photostream that you made available for friends or family. So until you expire the pass, people who use your Guest Pass can see all the photos in your whole account that are marked visible for friends or family, even if they aren't members."

Thanks, pleyelplayer

Thanks to the rest of you for your wonderful comments about my Pleyel! I am so blessed to have this piano.

Click on the size pic you want first, then right click your mouse, "save pic as"
worked for me?

Congratulations on your beautiful piano!

As you love the European heritage, here are some things you didn't know....

Schimmel bought the Pleyel name in 1971. They only produced a limited number of pianos with the Pleyel name every year. In 1994 the Pianomanufacturer Rameau bought the names Pleyel and Gaveau, two years later Pleyel became independent again.

Konzert Patrick,
Thanks for the info. I guess one is able to learn something new every day. Thanks for adding a bit of history to my thread.

Photos do not capture the magnificence and beauty of this singular and exquisite instrument. It is a work of art,both in its craftmanship and resonance and the "artist" who plays it (as only he can!)does justice to its unique and commanding history and stature.

Seconded.
It gets tiring after a while to hear people talk only about Yamaha or Kawai as if those are the only two makes out there.

She's a beauty and I hope some day I get the chance to play one.

When I was shopping for my piano, I had a chance to play a new upright Pleyel in Toronto. It was a very beautiful piano - maybe the best upright I'd ever played. It was expensive, but worth it!

I felt that same way - not a lot of choice in the city I live in.

Wow, gorgeous instrument.

I wish you years of happy playing and enjoyment of this beauty.

Thanks Julieta for the compliments. As many here can tell,Julieta is a friend of mine and my biggest fan. On second thought,my only fan. Ha! Ha!
