General Questions Page

Is the haberdashery mentioned on the Retail page what is now 76-77 High Street? If so, I think the name might be Sayle rather than Sykes

You are right John, I will correct this mistake

I'm having problems creating image thumbnails. Not sure if I'm dong something wrong. I'm getting the following message:
Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory Error code: 127
Anyone any ideas?

I saw this the other evening. I will ask Steve to look. I'll let you know when it's OK

KRM: The solution I used, was in two parts:
1. Upload the file (making a note of its exact name)

2. Add the following link to your page:

[[File:YourFileName.jpg|thumb]]

SBP: Yes, this definitely works for images (you can see the effect on the pictures on my personal page User:SBParker). It probably works for other media too.
JV:Yes, this seems to be working for me now...thanks.
