These glasses look like Carnival to me, but I don't know much about them. They have long indentations around the base and the bottom is star like with "MSE 22" etched along the edge. Hope my pics come out

well, screwed that up. Meadowlark tried to help me.
Question - what is my host?
the URL is the address at the top of the page (address) right??

Not Carnival, not depression. I believe that they have the safety rim, which would make them newer.

by safety rim you mean it is thicker at the rim??

Niel,

To get the web address ("URL" - Uniform Resource Locater) of just one picture, right click on the picture itself with your mouse on the page where you see it on the internet. On the menu that pops up, click on "properties". Look in the middle of the gray box that pops up and the URL of just that picture shows up. Copy it and paste that between the [$IMG][$/IMG]tags here and your photo will appear. (remove the dollar signs. I have to use them here so you can see what I wrote).

To just give us a clickable link for the entire page where one or more of your pictures appear, paste the web address of the whole page that's full of stuff like you did, but between the tags:
[$URL][$/URL] (remove the $ signs)

What may be confusing is that individual pictures each have their own "teenie weenie" URL after uploading. Just that picture on a page with nothing else, usually in the upper left corner of that page. When you see them on a webpage with text, other pics, and more, the "fuller" webpage has a number hidden links like we use here to stick that picture and other graphics one at a time into that webpage to view.

By right-clicking on that one image, you are looking to see what that one picture's "individual little address" is. That's what you use here to post individual pictures.

OKAY! To everyone else laughing at my terms: I don't know that right names for them, but at least I can explain how it works!

Note that the code (UBB) for posting links & pics on message boards like this is not the same as HTML code. I patiently explain the process above because this is where someone taught me.

All those little smilies and animated pics I post at the end of my postings are inserted in the same way. I have about 6 sites I found by searching that have all kinds of fun stuff. For those of you who want to practice the instructions above, this site actually gives you the code to copy and paste here, tags and all.

On this one site, you don't even have to right click on the image to get the address of that one smilie. Every time you click on a smilie you like, the entire code with tags is displayed in a box at the top of the page. The site has hundreds of fun images:

Have fun!

Niel,
Yes the safty rim is a thicker portion of the side of the glass at the very top. Prevents chips. It's been in use since the 1940's. That info doesn't help date the glass, it just eliminates Elegant glass and Depression glass.

Edited cause I can't spell.

I'm wondering if they could be vaseline glass. I really don't know if tumblers were ever made in vaseline.

niel You would need a black light to check this, if they are they will glow under the light.
