Keep your PMs flat rather than standing on end. I keep mine in the little clear plastic trays that the cherry tomatoes come in, I can get six lying down in each tray and they then stack inside each other so don't take up much room. I'm not telling you how many trays I've got .

Yep, make sure you keep them flat, otherwise one end will dry out lol
I keep mine {for now} in a nice posh box that had Thornton's choccies in.

That's great Soulie. Is there any way of doing it if you don't have online photo storage? I've tried doing it the "Add a Picture" way which I used for my winner and top 3 buttons but although I can add this one it's static and only shows "I'm a member of MSE" and doesn't blink.

hmmm, I've never had to add an animated graphic to my sidebar before so I don't know if that's the norm or not?
I do suggest to sign up to photobucket as it is free and easy to use if you wish to.

Just a quickie, but here is a static version of the image if you would prefer to display this than register at photobucket
Or for anyone else who would prefer it!

Depends which site some of the them you click on the link and it will bring the download box up then you would click save and it will ask you where you want to save it on your computer and on others you need to add them to your shopping basket as if you are going to buy them, you may need to register with the site, then when you go to your basket you have to go to checkout and it will go through like a sale but without charging you anything and then give you a links to download then as above click the download and save to your computer. Hope that makes some sense if it doesn't if you let me know what you want to download I will go through it step by step with you but would need to know where you are downloading it from.
