Seeing as you live just donw the road, I thought I'd try and help. Yahoo doesn't allow hotlinked to images unless you're all signed in and stuff. You _could_ try posting a link to the page rather than a link to the image, but you're better off finding somewhere else to host it. Usually your ISP has this facility and most good ones allow hotlinking.

Hotlinking is allowing domains other than the one that hosts the picture to access it.

Cheers,

Jools

BTW, you might want to change that location to Livingston, Scotland or UK as most users won't have the foggiest where it is.

Corydoras Juli, perhaps trilineatus is my guess based on cat e-log pics?

Hmmm, certainly not C. julii and I'm not sure about C. trilineatus as the fish looks to be too snouty. The fish is slightly turned away from the camera so I can't really see this aspect of it.

Any chance of an perfectly side on shot?

Definitely C. leopardus. Looks just like the cory on Ian's site.

Q: How tall is Cartman in real life?

A: Well, Cartman doesn't exist in real life, but if he did he'd be two feet tall.
