Welcome to the world of the Vincent D'Onofrio obsessed - and a bit of real life thrown in.

So that's how you do it

Another first - I managed to load a few pictures, from those that will not post, on to Photobucket, where they are adjusted to JPEG and can load via the URL - and that's what I did for the first time ever!

I also bought a plug-in drive for my pictures, as they are taking up so much room, my computer is really slowing down.

I'm glad Diane's got PowerDVD working. She's already overtaken me and is watermarking pictures and managing to get them to post. More pictures for us to

Post 401

I completely missed the 400th post because of the problems I was having with uploading pictures, so here's some Masquerade, courtesy of TheReel.

A Tip For Diane


Don't give up on the PowerDVD, Diane - I only have a DVD player on my computer (long story of incompetence and the manufacturers referring the vendors to themselves) but I can still get the caps. Don't know why they are now loading black like this, though, after a couple of successes. All suggestions for a solution welcome.

Tuxedo Hill Collages

The only way to get these pictures to load was to make Picasa collages out of them.

So sweet with the little girl.


Handsome , tall and clever, and oh, that back...



Please don't let THESE hands ever get arthritis.


Playing dumb.


Who'd like to be in THIS tight fit with The Man?


Who wants to be the dog and who the pen?


Nailed! (Yes please).


I keep trying

I am still attempting to post my lovely caps of Tuxedo Hill, but still drawing a black blank. This is not one of mine, and it loaded OK, so I wonder what's wrong with mine all of a sudden?

For JoJo

For some reason all my caps are going black today, so I enlisted the help of Picasa to put together this collage for JoJo.

Unfortunately, JoJo, the actual bit of him thumping the noticeboard won't copy well because he's moving so fast it blurs, but I hope this bit will do instead.

Anyone trying to save it will also find I made a mistake in the titling as I'd just been capping Tuxedo Hill, so please try to contain your amusement at my dimwittedness and give it a title of y our own.

Person Of Interest

I just managed to cap about half of this episode. Of course, the person of interest is really Bobby. I found I was particularly interested in his hands, his eyes and eyelashes, his back...and his lap.










Once again, one picture has faded away to black nothingness.

A quick snatch...

...before I go off and capture a few more pictures.



Thanks to those who made these lovely shots possible.

All My Own Work!

I've found that I have a programme already on my computer that will let me capture stills from my region 2 dvds. So welcome to the very first original Val's Own pictures, all from one of my favourite episodes, Chinoiserie.




Don't know what happened to this one - it was there a minute ago!








Vincent D'Onofrio, Sex God

How is it he never gets nominated for Sexiest Man On The Planet? He so obviously is.











Thanks to Eliza, Tamara and others whose skills I have not acknowledged by name for producing these pictures.

Tagged Again!



This time it was Eliza who tagged me, and she gave me W.

Two George Harrison ones in this - I adored him, like Ann, and greatly mourn his passing. You can only get one each of J and K out of The Beatles, , 4 Os, and no U, X or Z. Pretty good record of records, eh?


Eliza, I give you F.

Ann, how about O?
