Nahh you're not entirely wrong ..
I myself however only repost something on request or when it suits the subject of conversation.

So is reposting a halloween image ok when it's halloween ?
I guess so .. as long as you don't overdo it.

Is 4 (maybe a few more) times too many ?
I don't know.

Can anyone remember what you call a question, that you answer yourself ?
I don't know. :)


I figure the better the picture is the more times you can repost it before someone tires of it.
And your Joan is usually very liked and even admired .. I guess no one hurts from a few reposts now
and then.

Kind Regards
CeeJay
