Wow--we īre from all over!
|
Sometimes when I īm reading posts in the forum or looking at contributions(WS, PPTs), I wonder where the authors are from. I īm not very good with recognizing flags, so I have to go to another website to look them up. Finally decided I was tired of doing that and started a list of flags and their countries that I see pretty often on this site. I thought I īd just start with the ones in the forum, because it īs a smaller percentage of contributors and there are so many "regulars". However, just in the last few days there īve been posts from over 50 countries! I ended up having to make MYSELF flashcards so I can learn them all! 
I knew teachers from all around the world use this site, but...wow, we really are from ALL around the world!

Hi Sue
And I bet you īre not even counting the country hoppers like yours truly
or vice-versa?  |

"Country hoppers"!?! That īs a new one for me!
Nope, not counting you "country hoppers"; just the flag you īre currently under and that īs quite a variety already.
(BTW, love those little flag-wavers.)

If you just rest your mouse pointer on the flag next to the post, it will show you the country.

Yes, Yanogator is right, if you work with a PC; if you are using a Mac the only way is to pretend you are saving the clip/flag ( right click ); it will show you the country. BTW, I am posting to check what has happened to the forum, I can īt see any changes in the posts fo hours and hours - it seems strange, though, obviously possible. Just trying to chech. Sweet dreams. off, deeply tired and upset linda
