Every time I view someone's photos on Facebook I have to hit the ''home'' button again, therefore losing my place. Is there a way I don't know about to look at the photos and get back to where I was reading without going back home and starting over? Hope this makes sense.

Btw, pickles, I sure enjoyed seeing your pics of Aussieman and the kids and you when you were there. 1999? WHERE does the time go?

Facebook totally confuses me. What I hate about it is all the add on applications that everyone keeps sending me. I don't have time for them. I was deleting them one at a time until a friend told me a shortcut. About the pictures, I think there is something to click on about returning to the persons albums instead of your home page.

I know those buttons you speak of and have used them, but they only take you (or at least ME) back to the beginning of their album, not back to my home page. Maybe I'm just too impatient. ;-) Gail

There are usually links that say stuff like back to photo album or back to profile on the same page as the photo you are looking at. I'm not sure if that's what you mean. I'm having so much trouble getting any of my buttons or links to do anything on facebook lately.

Yeah, I've used those, BUT they won't let me back out of the album. I have to go up and hit the ''home'' button. Then scroll past everything I've read up to that point. Sometimes that's a LOT because I don't check FB every day. Gail

OK, you want to get back to where you were reading on your home page. I don't think that's possible unless you back up. That may not work, either. ..Blinkie

Where is it that you want to get back to? Their profile? The previous page?

Thanks on my pics. Some of those are from my first trip there in 1999. The others are from when I stayed for six months, in 2001. ITA... where has time gone? His girls are 17 and 18 now! Ten years doesn't seem like a long time but...sheesh...it seems like twenty! lol

Yes, and they went from young girls to young ladies. I'll never forget several of us (I think it was just Doopy, Rusty and I) tracking your flight there. Fun! I am trying to get back to my HOME page so I can read where I left off before I started looking at pictures. Gail

I think I know what you mean. You can never get back to exactly where you were. I have had that problem too. FB could rectify this situation if they had whatever you were looking at open in another window.(pickles)
