I thought that is what the "attachment" option was for. Fixed them. I don't do google or flikr. Fixed them a different way in about 30 seconds.

If you intended to insert attachments, you can refer to this thread: http://www.mudncrud.com/forums/index.php?topic=1880.0 . There are other tips and tricks stickies on that board too.

I just did a quick test, the feature does still work. The main thing is to reduce the size before uploading, and the attachment is only viewable to logged in users.

Exactly what I did before JC posted. They looked exactly like your "test" but apparently that was wrong.

Sorry Jody - I was just trying to help.
The attachment function only posts a thumbnail that has to be downloaded to be viewed properly.
You can sign up for Flikr for free but limited to 1000 pics - Google is free and unlimited.

I downloaded your pictures last night and looked at them - Wow!

I don't see your pictures now.
Not sure what you changed but it isn't working at all now.

Please check the instruction thread again as I added more information there that might help you.

Looks like you figured it out Jody - those are great!

Jody · « **Reply #1328 on:** February 23, 2021, 08:37:48 PM »

Yeah, I didn't want to open accounts somewhere so mudworm having that other thread as an image dump was a great idea. About a year ago I posted briefly on another forum powered by Simple machines using this same format and their "attachments" were displayed automatically as 600 pixels rather than thumbnails. I thought these would display the same way.

Nice shots.

It almost seems like you miss the place a little?

Jody · « **Reply #1331 on:** February 24, 2021, 07:48:25 PM »

Life was sure simpler back then...and I have great memories of my parents there in better times.

Perfect place to grow up, that's for sure.

One of your own?

P.S. Sheesh, the grainy photo tells me I need to upgrade my phone to a more modern one. It was not even cropped and blown up.

Jody · « **Reply #1333 on:** March 15, 2021, 06:56:12 PM »

Maybe the resolution was just set too low. I have a $150 motorola phone that takes great pictures...but if the resolution is set low(many phones the default setting is lo res for ease of photo messaging and texting) the quality is not so great. What phone do you have?

mudworm · « **Reply #1334 on:** March 15, 2021, 09:22:16 PM »

Thanks Jody. I have iPhone 7, but this most likely is just user incompetence. I think I might have zoomed too much on my phone before taking the photo from where I happened to be standing. A real photographer would have moved herself to a better position, closer and higher.

Jody · « **Reply #1335 on:** March 15, 2021, 09:33:42 PM »

Do you use the cloud for photo storage? I have heard that when using the cloud the phone only retains a thumbnail and that might be your issue. If it does end up being the phone, get a $150 Motorola like mine.

It might also be imgur -- the free image publishing/sharing service I use. Not sure, but I'm not bothered enough to investigate. I hope everyone else's photos now look even better than before since I provide the supply of crappy photos (crappy in photo quality, not in the climber model).

$150 is too expensive. My next eligible upgrade is coming up in May (once every two years). I always go with the cheapest option. I once got one for free, and last time was $50. So, My next phone might just be an iPhone 7s. Woohoo!

Ah, another cheapskate, just like me! I say it is a $150 phone...retail. I paid not a cent for it. Talked them into the freebie since I am a long time customer.

Found this old vid of pinnacles in the winter. That's JC narrating.
Watch till the end - the sound of the sink hole forming (@7:30) is incredible!

Didn't see the Pinnacles anywhere in that video.

Interesting how many people in that video were absolute morons...let's stand here inches from the landslide while standing directly beneath a hillside with the same geological composition...no chance of that going too.

I didn't see a smart person anywhere in that video.
