I wish I could upload the pictures of the paintings of the crowned nuns I have, but I'm pretty much a slug when it comes to that kind of stuff. Any helpful hints?

Assuming you have the photos on your computer... You have to first upload them to a site like photobucket.com and from there, get the direct link to the photo, and paste it into the little box that comes up when you click on the 'Image' button in the box where you write posts. That should bring up your photo in the post writing box.

Does that make sense? It's easier to do than describe... :)

Thanks for the tutorial! I will try it when I get a chance.

How lovely is this? Look at the socks hanging up... the flowerpot... I wonder what the note next to the cross says.

I want my own cave :saint2:

This can also be a Trinitarian friar. I've seen it titled as "Portrait of a Dominican(or Trinitarian) Friar"

Previously attributed to Spanish artist Francisco de Zurbarán, who painted [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v446/echo4lima/zurbaran_serapion.jpg"]this[/url] dramatic painting and a few other of Mercedarians I've posted on here.

It's now attributed to the Flemish School circa 1639 (date of painting)
