Please post pics of the Belgian Royal Family here. Since, this is a picture thread, please don't post pics from current events here.

Due to bandwidth problems we are facing at TRF, kindly don't post pics directly to the thread. Use photo hosting websites like Image Shack or Photobucket to post your pics. Remember, pics posted directly will be deleted.

Please remember to credit the pictures. Pictures credited to a person, ebay or yahoo/google are not acceptable sources, as they are not the original copyright holders of the pictures. Remember, uncredited pictures will be deleted without warning to the member.

P.S. I would also like to point out that according to the copyright rules, even though the name of the agency is visible on the pictures through watermarks, like gettyimages, isopix, polfoto etc., still remember to post the source, it only takes a second:)
