Gosh, that is sad. Why is it closing? Did they offer to transfer the contents to another site? Hopefully many of you have saved your favorite pics to your personal computers.

I tried to look around a bit, but it is very very slow if you click on any of the pictures for a closer look.

All MSN groups are closing. MSN suggested moving groups to Multiply but Multiply is more like My Space than the old MSN Groups. Just a really weird format. Gone are the days of having photo albums like MSN groups had. I moved my Wisconsin related MSN group to Yuku but you can't post pictures within the forum. You have to have them posted at Photobucket or in your profile album. Most of the other MSN Group alternatives are the same. It all kind of sucks! Thanks for reminding me about the MSN garden junk site. I plan to copy some of the more inspiring pictures for my personal photo album on my computer.

Here is the url to their site. http://groups.msn.com/GardenJunk/

Garden Web wouldn't let me create a link to it :^(

Luvs introduced me to GW a couple of years ago. Every time I've gone to a different forum, they seemed difficult to use. Maybe that's because this one is so user friendly.

Thanks for reminding those of us who never heard of that site what a great place this is. Also, thanks for the info and link so we can go see too! Linda

So many MSN groups have moved but it isn't the same format so many folks are losing touch with each other. Thank goodness for this junking site.
The MSN Garden Junk has moved to a new home, but it just doesn't seem the same.

Here is a link that might be useful: new home for MSN garden junk

Thank you for the link. i got to look at all the bowling balls and a bunch of other stuff before it slowed down. I saved a few pics, tried to save the person's name as part of the file name.

Oh my gosh. Miniature garden junk for your Christmas tree! What a concept. I need some teeney tiny tea pots! May be I'll find some by next December!

OMG I went there and I looooove photos so I had me a grand time downloading photos and addint them to my idea folder.

Thanks for letting those of us who did not know about this.

Thanks, I found some of my own photos there that I had forgotten about. I couldn't remember what name I used when I went there a few years ago, but it was underneath my pictures, so now I know. :)

LOL Good one!

Well hello there. I am Dottie and I moderate the new site at gardenjunk.org, we moved all of the photos to the new site two years ago so nothing is going to be lost and everything that has been posted since then has been moved. You are all welcome to come check it out anytime. I'm sorry to see folks saying it just isn't what it used to be because everything is there. I've been a part of it since the beginning as well as here. I never left gardenweb as there are great folks at several places. Please do come check it out...hugs around, Dottie

Hi Dottie, I've been trying to join the new site for a week or so, but when I click on join, and fillout the info, the "join" button at the bottom of page is greyed out and inactive. :-( Any ideas on what might be wrong?

Hi Spedigrees,
I sent you an email using the address above.Waiting to hear back from you. There are a couple of reasons one may not be able to join. If the username is already being used or if you actually got signed in and didn't realize it, it won't let you join again. I can sign you up if you are still having trouble but will need to know your email.

Was that Luvs luvs roses? Charlene from MS.? I am trying to find her. She was to have surgery many years ago and I lost touch with her and have tried to find her again. I am Gardnpondr, I used to post a whole bunch.

THANK YOU!!!!!
