For someone who is almost 65 I think I am the best looking person here on this BB!



Besides how could anyone say NO to this inspector!

I don't know Joe, here is my picture.

By chance do you moonlight as an actor?

How do you post a photo on this site? I could never figure it out.

Rob

Yeah and I hang out with Jennifer Aniston.

Here is a picture when I was Steve Reeves!



I wonder what Roger looked like when he was a Kid!

By chance do you moonlight as an actor?

My wife wants a Servic Call now. Could you come over and hook up the Range Top?

Seriously, how do insert a pic in a post.

Rob there are a few ways.

The the photo must be on a web server somewhere.

Joe has his own web space so I bet that is where his photo is stored.

If you put your mouse over a photo and right click then choose properties you can see the web address of any photo.

Here is the address of Joe's picture.

If you have your own pictures but no web space you can email them to any of the ECN moderators or Photos@Electrical-Contractor.net and we can post them for you.

Please include a good description of the photos and where you want them posted.

Ok I have to come clean, this is me, about 5 years ago.



Bob

iwire,
Do you guys consider too risky to let everyone have the ability to insert a jpg.

Rob

It has not been a problem, and with the decent members here I doubt it ever will be.

If any questionable content gets posted the moderators hear about it quickly and I doubt any of us would hesitate to delete inappropriate matrial.

That said I am sure that Bill A (the operator of this site) would quickly remove the ability of the members to post images if it got out of control.

IMO Bill wants this site to be suitable for family viewing at all times.

Bob

I am a member of a sports message board and inserting a photo is as easy as copy and paste. As a note that board is pure evil and no one has ever posted anything offensive.

Rob

Well that to me is a good example of people understanding time and place.

Some areas of the Internet are still the untamed frontier, here at this site that is not the case.

Rob,

There are a number of reasons. Server Space, Bandwidth and Content are all things to consider.

Hard Drive space can fill up pretty quick when anyone can use it, especially with the size of todays digital picture files. Single picture files can be HUGE in size, both physically and file-wise. If these were posted as is it would cause everyone to have to scroll, and loading times would make it impossible for people on slower connections to see them. This also adds to bandwidth and makes it slower for even the faster connected members.

Rob,
As an example, your picture of the "Solar Support" as sent was 2048 x 1536 pixels in size.....twice the width of many monitor screens, and 1.75 Megabytes....(my software says it would take about 313 seconds to load at 56.6 Kbps).
As seen on the website it is 550 pixels in width, and file size is only around 100 Kilobytes.

Electure,
I understand now that we cant do that. I purposely sent that photo to you in a larger format so you could size it acordingly with loosing much resolution. Its just not very convienent for members wanting to post photos.

Respectfully submitted
Rob

Joe
Your beauty is only exceeded by your intelligence.

Thank you Sir!
