I think you found the uncategorised version, Bel. THe spreadsheet has hundreds if not thousands of descriptions, although it is all rather haphazard.

The only blobs that got put into the picture library were the official ones on Edited Entries. Blobs used in The Post, or the small versions that were put on the front page weren't recorded anywhere.

It's only threatening because it's so distracting. I was really glad I only discovered it today, after the Post was finished. smiley - laugh
