My gramps who would be 112 if he was still around used to call our big Blue Heron that look very similar to yours Mud Cranes cause he said they were always in the mud around tide flats and ponds and lakes. I wonder if your sand cranes are really Blue Herons? nice winter pics guys and I for one...

HD: looks like you had 5 does and a fox. They liked your handy work.

Nice to see this thread active again. Thanks for all the good pics and stories.

It’s been a while since I posted anything on this thread and thought you might like the temp squirrel feeder I made. I had a big Rubbermaid garbage can filled with cedar shavings and lost the top so put a piece of plywood on it to keep them dry til I need to use them in our planting beds. So...

Xfax: hard to say if that's critter damage or lightning, but that tree is sure hanging on. on another thread i was reading that if you cut up a tree to use for firewood that has been hit by lightening that it will shoot off sparks when it burns. Over: cool critters you have entertaining you...

TxDon: very nice? out your front door? ALL: I actually bought this little cast iron bird feeder for my bride, but it's become Cleo's drinking water now. we turned the cast iron bird to the side a bit and now she can sit on the edge of the cement blocks and put her chin on it and drink.

SNYMAT: OKEE DOE KEY? :) if that is Pittsburgh is it close to 3 river stadium where Bradshaw used to shine? ALL: I usually have a few brown woodpeckers (females or different type than this one), but this red headed one has been working on the new telephone poles the last couple years and i...

Synmat: that is worthy of an award. Philly or is that NY? ALL: here's a picture of downtown Seattle when the Smith Tower at 25 stories was the tallest building and I-5 freeway was getting built in 1966. then a picture taken around 2000. i remember using I-5 freeway when I first started driving...

I'm not sure exactly where I got this picture originally or if it's REAL or a nice graffic artist's work, but I like it. sorry I didn't resize it, but i need to head outside while it's not raining. cheers

Over: I'm almost 100% this is raccoons and i'll have to get a game camera to catch them even though i'm usually up at 4am. thankfully they are leaving my lawn alone this year, but they have been tearing the neighbors yards up and maybe cause I removed a ton of grubs and crane fly larve when i re...

Synmat: WOW 3 different woodpeckers and great pics of them too. WELL DONE!!! ALL: since that tornado was so close to the water could it almost be called a hurricane? we love watching storms from inside a condo/room on the OREGON COAST, but I sure wouldn't like to have a tornado hit with us...

Alien: that dragon was pretty cool especially for something that had to be moved in a few days. Buckeye: great picture. ALL: anybody else remember hearing red sky at night sailors delight and red sky in morning sailors take warning? here's a couple pics I saved of a tornado on the Oregon...

Buckeye: thanks for letting me (us) know about more options. I like to post just from my laptop cause it seems easier, but since i do have a fairly new Iphone i could learn to use it for more than just a phone, text, emails and looking at threads. just an FYI cause I posted the D9 and the drive...

Buckeye: i'm not familiar with Google drive, but just guessing I'd say it's kinda like the CLOUD? sounds like you have got it figured out for you and if you'd like to post full size I'd say you have the skills and you just are choosing to post thumbnails. yes? Syn: thanks for the detailed and...

BB & OVER: there seems to be an issue with my pictures cause I don't see or can't find any in your posts about all those good looks? Alien: I think the % is another option for resizing that i can use instead of #'s and thanks for mentioning it. ALL: so it looks like i can resize pics in...

ALL: not that i'm guessing it makes much of a difference, but i also was able to change the sizing using CANVAS in Paint 3d so here's the same picture saved using that method.sorry for cluttering up the thread, but maybe this will help others not only post pictures here, but on other threads...

XFax: BINGO you are the MAN!! yep my bad AGAIN. it seems like programs are not highlighted the same as my old eyes are used to. at one time I was a bit ahead of the curve with Computers (had 2 286's on my desks in 1993), and I used to take digital pictures with a Kodak digital that had a docking...

ALL: thanks again for all the help. Alien that is the paint program I used for years, but this dell laptop or maybe it's Microsoft 10 or an old MS office program I use shows this version of Paint. any clues to where the resize feature is? BTW I had to enlist my bride to help me make a screenshot...

xfax: I totally appreciate yours and everyones help!!! that said I think I need to go to photo editing school. I opened up PAINT to try and find the resizing option and I couldn't find it. i'll keep trying and if you have any other ideas how I take pictures off my Iphone 8+ and make them the...

Geoduck: I picked up some self adjusting binoculars at Costco for about $75 maybe 30 years ago that still work great. i've also got a spotting scope that can either be held by hand or put on a stand. I doubt that looking through a telescope will do better on the short range (under 5 miles)...

Syn: the first post both pics are MEDIUM cause i couldn't have one different than the other (I tried). so i clicked on LARGE in the next post which shows up exactly the same on my computer as FULL SIZE so if that changes on your computer and full size doesn't fit in your screen i'll click on...

Syn: this is large setting which ends up being the same as full size. AND other option is THUMBNAIL

Syn: i'll do the test cause I'm willing to help you figure it out and i'm sure i'll get some benefit too. here are more edited pics that are at 1000x 550 approx. and i'll do the first one small, next medium and last large. (I can't do different sizing in same post so this is medium setting)

SYN: I set my pics at 1000 and I think the other # is in the mid 500's and it shows up full size on my laptop after the post. i'd be happy to change to medium if others have the same issues or maybe you might need to change your screen resolution? ALL: anybody else have my pics showing up...

sorry I haven't seen those videos with turbines, but I did fly out of Tulsa in 2004 and the pilot told us over the speaker that we'd be flying at 40,000 feet cause there were close to 50 tornadoes currently. It actually looked like mountain tops covered in clouds from the air and no camera...

xFax: are those sunset pictures really from 2004? pretty cool, but don't you get some every summer? got any tornado pics? ALL: these turbines are popping up now quite a bit on the eastern half of our state (Washington) and there are a few places where you come up over a hill or around a turn...

OVER: I remember you putting in your process to post large pictures to click on AA. I actually had your post #222 open with another page of TBN so I could follow your method. since I didn't know if that meant to turn it off or on and had no clue it would make the picture show up instead of text...

XFax: I like the double click on the reply to thread for the shortcut, but AA button is still depressed so I had to click on it. just saying that darn button was the key to unlock the missing pictures to click on so i could full size them. thanks again for all the time you spent helping ALL...

Synmat: I think you discovered my issue. Thank you very much!!!!!!!!

Exfax: from my laptop that i've saved pictures from my phone to (not via the cloud) ALL: I'll keep trying to figure this out and maybe my fumbling along will help others. or at least i'll be able to help others once i finally do figure it out. I still haven't found out how to get the pics to...

OVER: thanks again for all your help!! when I used the other icon with the 4 dots that says insert image and downloaded a pic that i'd resized and it still didn't show a picture in my reply. just showing words so i can't double click on it. MB: where's the birdie? very cool!!

Over:thanks for the help and I understand (sort of) the process on how to post Thumbnails and i'll review yours and other posts to see if I can get to the "how would you like the size of picture you're posting" tab. i do use the Go Advanced tab, but maybe i'm using the paperclip type of...

ALL: thanks for all the help!! I've been using Paint to edit my pics of my 8+ Iphone, but i'd never used the resize feature. so I resized this pic putting 1000 as the big # and I think the other # ended up being changed to 567 or something like that cause I clicked on tab to make sizing similar...

Over: a friend of mine in Idaho has about 30 wild turkeys that stay pretty much on his big farm. they are so big I had no idea they could fly much less climb trees, but you caught one in a tree for evidence. yep I see him/her too. I live in the city, but it feels like more with my little view...

Synmat: thank you! :drink: OVER: this forum is set up pretty much like another forum I used for old tools, but thank you for the tips. I saw there is a thread on photos that i'll read and if I have any more questions i'll maybe send you a PM. :thumbsup: ALL:

ALL: here's another picture that might help you see Cleo sitting in the tree. I also figured out how to use the private messaging for TBN so now i just need to work on my picture posting and finding threads that I find interesting or start a few. thanks for the help!!! Synmat: thanks for the...

OVER: thanks for the detailed response and hopefully i'll figure it out, but I might need a little help as i work through it. does TBN have a private messaging service like another forum I belong to so we can maybe talk about this without cluttering up the thread. XFAX: nicely done and she's...

OVERSIZE: I used Photobucket maybe 15 years ago when they first offered their free service so i know how to post links, but when PB changed the way I loaded pics and all the other bs I stopped using them about 5 years ago and I just download like emails with the thumbs now. I've heard some of...
