NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
Re: NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
Boy, she's gooood...I have a feeling she'll stick around (we hope)
BTW, I just bought a primo new digi camera at costco in Reno.
(my camera fucking broke after I took ONE fucking photo this year, then it fixed itself 2 weeks after the burn, it had exposed, moving parts, its now toast as far as ever returning to the playa goes, lmfao!)
So here goes (btw, this camera was highly recommended by a non-eplayan, ooooold skool burner...)
Finepix XP20 by fujifilm; water, shock, freeze and DUST proof! yay! The ENTIRE camera is encased in thick plastic! I'm told it takes good enough photos and short videos, I paid $159.00 (before tax)

Ha, MA, did they score a slot on there?! That's cool! It's definitely a cool donut shop.

Re: NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
Well, the best method is to actually resize the image using a program like Irfanview or one of the quick image resizing tools. 800px is usually a good width to stick to; though smaller, at 640px is probably more appropriate for this forum given the width of the avatar column.theCryptofishist wrote:Does someone know how to put in a percentage so a picture isn't a tiny corner of a billboard?
For the question directly, it's probably not supported natively in phpBB. Maybe a forum add-on can be installed to allow that. Though it might just end up hiding some enormous 10MP blurry image that someone thought to upload. I was actually more surprised that the image didn't show me any scrollbars to pan around.

or just plop it into PAINT.
This was just "Stretch/Skewed" to 17% both horizontally and vertically. (for some reason I don't have a regular resize in this version)

Re: NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
I have one of those, as does MyLarry. Mine is one model older and much cheaper, as I got it on base. Performed well out there .. until my FUCKING SD CARD DIED. Nice four gig went belly up. Lesson learned: bring a spare card to go with the spare battery. Le sigh. I got most of the shots off the card, but lost the ones I truly wanted.moonrise wrote: Finepix XP20 by fujifilm; water, shock, freeze and DUST proof! yay!

Re: NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
Hang in there TG. Being moderated can be disconcerting, and since it is usually a seamless private process, it can feel like you are the only one under the microscope. The commerce guidelines are indeed confusing, we all are in a post-spam post-event daze, and the new mod team is diligent. Commerce is insidious, it has to be watched constantly. with the new mod team, there are more eyes (and discussion) than ever before. Yes, the BMORG has been approached with the concept of a heavily moderated commerce zone. In the meantime, please stay, hang on for bumps in the road, and keep contributing. If in doubt, ask a mod before starting a thread!

Re: NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
They're really good, but problematic. Two weekends in a row now I've had 2am drunken donuts where 2 in a single go seems like a GREAT idea. Also, going into either of the Voodoo Donuts at 2am makes anything you've seen in a Portlandia sketch seem REALLY normal.maryanimal wrote:I've seen VooDoo donuts on Drive-ins diners and Dives! Yummy looking donuts!
I say all of this knowing I will probably get trashy again next weekend and be like, "Oh man, an Apple Fritter and a McMinnville Cream would be AWESOME right now!"

Actually, if the doctor (or rabi) fucks up and snips too much, it can and has created problems, sometimes painful, with getting an erection.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

Re: NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
Thanks for whacking boatloads of SPAM Ma'am!! I had no clue just how much there was until you retired (what a suck up I'm being, but it's true...your arms must be tired!)AntiM wrote:Hang in there TG.

Thanks for the head's up M. I'll get the extra card and battery. (costco concierge was extra helpful--guaranteed the camera for two years, haha, they have no clue what playa dust is capable of, uh!)
Soo, wtf, will you return tattoogoddess? (I once was scolded for posting a useless topic, woops)
Did anyone explain to TG that as long as it doesn't a live link, a good deal/product is okay to post?
e.g. the camera I posted above.

JK and Maryanimal: That was my guess. I sure am happy to be as Nature intended me. All of that skin I have gets stretched tight. I cannot fathom not having it. As for that old argument about cleanliness, well gosh-- soap and water! This is not the Middle Ages.

Re: NEVERMIND. I GIVE UP!!
I remember my first experience with a boyfirend who was uncircumsized. I look at his penis and said, "ohhh, it comes with it's own sleeping bag!". (no pun intended) hehehe and he was very clean.
Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.
