I just read a post, "Last One" and I believe this sets the record for the shortest "discussion" in myLot.
But as the saying goes, "A picture is worth a thousand words".
*Just check the post and apparently it was deleted.
I apologize to the member concern if this post of mine was the cause. My intention was to draw attention to the possibility of having multi-photos or image in a single post since it was clearly the reason why it required a series of posts to show the process of how the picture was completed.

't times i wish they'd a bare minimum, to save's from such non-sense. whilst "a pic's worth a thousand words" surely whome'er penned't could've'd more to write.

@crazyhorseladycx _ I'm not surprise at your comment and I would like to disabuse you of the idea that this post I wrote is being critical or sarcastic (of which I'm known for) of the "discussion" in question. My first reaction was amusement then it dawn on me the cleverness of the concept. Brevity has it's merits and we who write long meandering posts should learn from it.

@crazyhorseladycx _"All done" was the message of the post. Wasn't aware that gremlins have invaded myLot. Some former bubblers must have brought them over. If we go by the purpose of this site, a discussion is all about an exchange of ideas or opinions and the post did fulfill it's purpose since there were comments and response. I'm thinking of testing the limit of this rule by posting a "discussion" with just one word to break the myLot record that was set by this 2-word post. Just kidding.

@brokenbee _ Although both sites have some similarity, they have different emphasis. MyLot is more on creating a lively and meaningful discussion. Unlike in Bubblews you don't see any "nice post" comments do you?

I've seen a few short posts. I wasn't sure they were allowed but it's nice that they are. When I was on Bubblews, they told us it had to be a certain length.

@josie_ Yes, I believe that's what it was. I'm glad we don't have that rule here! :-)

@GardenGerty _It's part of a series of "discussion" she posted. I made a comment as several others did. So it's a legit discussion.

@josie_ - Friend Josie - One word or 1,000 words...not much difference between them if the message gets through either of them. I go for the long posts, mostly because I am too dumb to know how to properly say something accurately using few words.
As to images, it is accurately said that one's mind does not easily rid itself of the memory of a picture once seen. I do not speak for everyone here, but I have looked at images shown in places like the various "Wiki" things, full of old pictures. When one flashes by the screen that I have seen many years ago, I recognize it once again. Try it. You don't forget images once seen.
Take care and have lots of fun if you can...
