Rain in Southern Baja

if it were easier to post pictures we could see what's happening in Los Cabos

We’ve had .52 inches of rain so far. More forcast.

JZ, That’s why I do a copy just for here!

You don't have to do a copy. Just use [img=800x]. It makes your pics display perfectly on BN without having to resize them.

Example:
[Img=800z]https://photo.jpg[/img]

Just change the 'z' to an 'x'.

DK continues to give very bad advice about posting pics. You do not want to use PostImage to resize them. Yes, host them on Postimage. But do not resize them. To have them display properly here, just use the command: img=800x Resizing your photos hurts them when displaying on sites other than BNs. [Edited on 6-26-2022 by JZ]

David, My read for resolution here is 342K and 1600X1600! When I was younger and Tim Leary was the Acid Guru there was a recipe floating around (paper as it was pre-internet) for making Acid from banana peels! It was very long, complicated and probably an urban legend. To my knowledge no one ever got it to work! Most of the ordinary folks won’t follow 12 steps to post a picture when the won’t follow fewer steps to stop drinking themselves to death! [Edited on 6-26-2022 by RFClark]

JZ, I have told you this before, but pre-selecting the 800 pixels on Postimages does exactly the same thing you are doing manually! My advice is the same as yours but I simply have the photo site add in the =800x instead of typing it with each photo. The quality is not reduced.

David, it looks like the content cell width on BN is 569px, so anything wider than that is going to force the page to stretch. 800 is a nice number, but it's totally arbitrary and doesn't avoid stretching the layout. Quote: Originally posted by JZ   To have them display properly here, just use the command: img=800x That works great, but is not very efficient (you're sending excess data into the user's browser and forcing it to dump a bunch as it resamples the image to display it at a lower resolution), but these days most people have lots of bandwidth and CPU so it mostly doesn't matter. For most. People viewing this site over connections with a data quota or lower speed connection, DO end up paying for that convenient posting trick. [Edited on 6-26-2022 by lencho]

If adding photos was automatic, like Facebook, then there would be no need for any of us to help. I like seeing photos of Baja, don't you?

So...is it still raining in Baja Sur? I'll take your word for it, no photo necessary.

rain

A suggestion for you Udo

Sorry for the hijack on the rain thread.
I am seriously *edit to add* BAD w/technology and dont understand most of what y'all say But I have found this website www.befunky.com and it allows you to use their templates for collage, like the one I posted. It's relatively easy to resize so I can post on our website, or here, or IG etc. There are free templates, and some you have to pay for, but the one I used here is a freebie. Maybe it will help you, I hope it does. Udo duh sorry -- I hope it helps you create a collage of photos for your ENSENADA property!

Yes, DK, I like seeing photos on Nomad as well. I want to post photos of our place for sale in Ensenada, but it would be a daunting task to post 25 photos here. I have it listed under my page on Facebook and on Craigslist, and will probably post it on other places on FB as well.
