Not sure what kind of phone but old..........I Email the picture to myself and then take it from the Email and drag it to the screen on the Mac.....then I post it from there.  I do not know if it is over 54 but the powerhead looked a lot like a 135. Maybe I should start using a camera to take pictures?

Pictures,

I apologize for the hijack of the thread, but if you can get them into photobucket.com I think the extra few minutes is worth it to the readers.  It is a free account, you just need to tolerate a few adds while uploading your pictures (about 30 seconds per). I upload just pictures I am willing to share with the world, because it is a third party holding the image. 

Instructions:

Open account
Go to "Upload"
"Browse" picture from your computer or phone memory.
Once photo has been uploaded, go to IMG (lower right) high lite and copy http address.
Go to text box we are typing in now and paste http address.
In "preview" mode on this site a full picture will appear.
Post. 





Maybe this works for you, maybe it doesn't. Some pictures are worth the exploded view.

Have one of the young guys look at the setting, to see if there set for small pictures.
See if he can take a picture and email it to your account in a larger size.
If you could just get them to 800 x 600 in your posts ...
The new iPhone 6 came out yesterday ...  LOL

Photobucket is nice. I use that a lot for posting nicer pics. If you use the forum App Tapatalk it does the same thing as photobucket as far as hosting the image. Just really simple and fast if you use your smartphone to take pictures.

Yea Dave, very nice sunset pics. Wish I was at the lake now!

Just got back from a long weekend on Minnesota Lake X.............the first couple photos are a little scary..........I guess the real question is if these are the right size?  The problem is I do not always have a camera around the shop when stuff is there.

You got it Don !
See if you can adjust your phone/camera setting to that size or a bit smaller.

Heres a couple........The 2014 Black Stack from Fond Du Lac and a pontoon that must have belonged to Brett Farve ..........All paint and good work, must have cost a fortune, the interior is all Packers too.  Slammers CVX 17 was in today as well.....runs a 140 on it, very nice original........
