It is not unusual for me to get confused so bear with me. It was brought to my attention (I think it was by Frank A.) that there were no pics in my gallery. I do not have many but I do have some. When I go to gallery> my stuff>images- It opens. If I go to search, BillandCat, it will not open. When I go to What's new- There I am and then I click on view all BilandCat's images, my gallery opens. Yep-- this old goat is confused again. How can any one access my gallery, I mean a fellow user or any one for that matter?? Please, I am not just saying this, but I do get confused sometimes that is right in front of me but I can't see it. BillandCat

You'll have to add a signature link to your village gallery. The link that is on your posts is actually to your PET gallery(old site) and is empty. 1st go to your village gallery and in the browser bar at the top of the screen highlight and copy everything from http on. Go to the user control panel and edit signature.
In the window that opens you'll see a long bunch of gobbedly gook starting with left and right brackets and url between them followed by an = symbol.
It will end with [/url]. Highlight everything between the = sign and [ bracket, then paste in the info you copied from your gallery address bar. If you want the signature to say BillandCat, put this ] bracket right after the number that your address ends with and before [/url], click space bar 1 time and type in BillandCat. Then save the change. Test it by posting a reply and looking at the bottom after it is posted to see if the signature is there.

It's easy to get confused between the two galleries - one here at Elements Village and one at PET. The Elements Village gallery is the free one and the PET gallery is the one you get with your paid subscription to the Photoshop Elements Techniques magazine. As Linda pointed out, you have images in your Elements Village gallery but not in your PET gallery. If you follow the instructions Linda has given, you can add another link in the signature area of each of your posts. However even without adding that link in your signature, people can easily get to your Village Gallery by clicking on the "Images" link just under your location in the upper right of every post you make. Here is a link to an image with arrows indicating the links to both your galleries:

Thanks Frank.I posted the pic of my Grandson with his eyes closed only because I had nevertried any thing like this. I had no "eyes" to clone etc. so I just started with bushes, adjustments etc. When I finished one eye, I copied, flipped horizontal, transposed and there it was. A side note- while building the first eye and was clicking back and forth between before and after, I realized it looked like he was winking. So I made a two slide slide show of him winking. Now nobody can tell me that I have nothing to do!
