Thanks slowhatch! I'm so new I'm not quite sure what you call it...If I find a nice picture on the web and want to share it like you all do, how do I do it? I already have Photo Shop and Paint Pro on my computer--can I do it with what I have? I understand how to copy/paste words--can I do that with pictures too? What do I save the picture as--just a file or some special picture thingy? Sorry, this probably isn't the place to find all this out but I'd like to contribute more than my limited computer skills are allowing...

If it's the whole image you want, just right-click the image and choose "save picture as.." The programs you mentioned should have a resize function somewhere in the menu bar. The maximum size for attachments is 256kb, but most photos can be downsized to 50kb or less without losing too much detail.

I have save background as...is that the same thing? And do I have to specify jpg or anything when I save it or can I just stick it in a "my pictures" file? And once it is there, how do I paste it back to y'all?

I really appreciate your time--I keep thinking if I could just do it once I could do it again!

About the caps--they swim over to the I.M., grab something and swim back: is that the consensus?
I get the feeling they have to collect something too. Rob & Kim jumping off has me confused  :hallo3

how I do it peach

right click
Save picture as ( I have my picture files /folder ) or if you want you can just save to your desktop.
Then below you can attach
additional options
browse ( picture file or desktop OR recent )
click picture
open

Thanks everybody! I'll get somebody to walk me through it..

It seems like there are two things going on--some teams are swimming somewhere from the Isla Mauritia and others are taking a small skiff somewhere to what?  Is this the Detour?  Or are all teams doing both? And where/what were the kayaking roadblockers going and what were they doing?

Boy, I'm really full of questions tonight!

Georgiapeach, I was looking at your flights and I think you've got return flights going back to Kuwait. 

For example, KU 676 is a flight from Dubai to Kuwait that arrives in Kuwait at 8:00 am.

I have not had any luck with the "8:oo flight" line.  Departure or arrival.

Oops! You are absolutely right, Chateau d If! I copied in the returning flights by accident (see why I need to save pictures? Heee)

Went back and the arrival times were listed as 9:25 +1 so guess that isn't it. Where else could they fly through?

I had trouble the last time I linked to the KWI site, so I used Flightstats instead. There's no archive function, only a three-day window for searching; I used Sunday and came up with only two 8:10 flights to London.

I tried this site and then tried various combos of flights via Dubai,Delhi, Bombay,Nairobi.and Jo-berg on various airlines on to MRU. I had no luck with any Flights leaving or arriving exactly at 8. Maybe she said 8 in reference to an 8-ish flight? Got lots of those... Even checked all of Kuwait Air's flights out for one whole day and...nothing.

I'm voting for TBC tonight. We need one at some point to make the route spec work, and this seems as good a time as any.  B:)

Whether it's an EL, NEL, or TBC, I am positive D/M will arrive last.

Barbies:shes being really pushy right now..
Lyns: I'm being pushy!? Ya'll just pushed them infront of us,how am I being pushy!?
Barbies: were helping them out
Lyn: Ya'll CAN"T DO THAT! If we were here before them why would you put them infront of us regardless if they were helping them or not?
Barbies: ..just bare with us.
Lyns: I don't think that was right of them to push them infront of us and you do what you need to do ..if you could live with that on your conscience.

Well teh only poblem I see with the list is if Rob and Kim are the ones with Car problems and we do know the D/K do gget in a car accident.

Unless this happens very early in the leg (such as the beginning before any detour or Roadblock) they will be stuck for a while.

D/K if they are forced to follow the rules of the country (if its in that country, a not still in Kuwait).  Must stop even if the car is still drivable and wait for police.  If its not drvable they ahve to wait as well for replacement vehicle.  And going off of previous seasons that can take anywhere between 30 minutes to a hour and a half.

Same for Rob and Kim if they have to get a replacement vehicle.

If these happen I can't see this teams coming in 1st and 2cd with the tasks (that we have seen) being done so close to each otehr, unless they happen before the tasks.

This is  the  best  site for  Amazing  Race and I'm not  aware of another  with  people  better  at  finding  locations.    Here is  a   challenge - at   www.aol.com/goldrush   (the Gold Rush  game  being  advertised   on  CBS) the  million  dollar round  challenge  #8 question is about  a  location on  tonight's episode   of   AR-  can  you  find  the  location?   I've   looked everywhere  I  know   for  the  answer with no  luck.   If   you find  it  please  post  the  answer  here   or  PM  me.    There   is no $$$ for this round until  challenge #11  but not  being   able  to  find  the  answer is driving me nuts (short  trip)!!!

Here's the detour. 1 team got lost in the detour and went to the X spot. They should go to the cement area.  :jam:

The Gold Rush site has  a map posted with an X on it   that  is supposed  to be  where one of  the teams gets  lost.   Do  we  have  any info   about a  team   getting  lost?  Thank you banzai,  I would  have posted the  map but  didn't know   how.
