Well...I do understand why some folks dont want to post their pictures here. I mean really. Comparing to my picture I posted here...it's very hard for anyone here to look better! :o

Seriously...I dont forget faces. Never. I like this topic because I always wondered if I have pass (not die!) upon other Nomads in my travels.

I never forget a face either, it's the name that goes with it that eludes me usually!

Drum Roll, Please...?!!


By special request I am posting this rare and priceless photo of Nomad roundtuit and his bride.

Here they are!!



Hmm...at the bar, eh? Just a sec and we'll get them to focus a little better..,okay, guys... let's FOCUS!



sigh..Well, that was a good try, but...we've got to try harder this time, okay? Now..one-two-THREE! F O C U S!!


BY GOLLY, THATS'' IT....VIOLA! BRAVO!

And here they are in living color! 'roundtuit and co.'

Are we having fun yet?? Hell, Yes!

Fez...I've thought the same thing. I've always had a good memory for faces, often remembering someone after running into them after 20 yrs or more. But as BRIAN said, it's the names I sometimes have more trouble with, especially nowadays as I grow older.

Wondering if I've met them in my past Baja travels or in the future was definitely on my mind when I decided to start this topic. But mostly it was curiosity about what they looked like while reading their posts. It's a little like seeing a music video, sometimes it makes you understand the song a little better.


Miguelamo :) :yes: :tumble: :D

WELL...I'M HOPING WE CAN KEEP THIS TOPIC GOING...BUT, it's going to be pretty tough to do that if nobody will post their picture(s)!!


It's been lots of fun to see everyone's pictures of themselves and their spouses, etc. It's good to be able to put a face with the name used by Nomad's on the board.

SO ONCE AGAIN...I'M ASKING YOU WHO HAVE NOT POSTED A PICTURE TO PLEASE GET BUSY AND POST A PICTURE OR PICTURES FOR US TO SEE!

And...as I've written several times, it's not really that hard to do, but...if you need help in doing it, check on PAGE 6 of this topic to see David K's easy to follow directions.

Because Nomads can change the number of posts they view per page (in your Control Panel/ Options link, at top), it may not be on page 6. For me, it is on page 4...
So, to make it easy to find.... HERE IT IS AGAIN!:

====================================================

It takes just a little practice... here again are a couple of methods for posting photos on Nomad:


There is some misunderstanding about how to post photos... There are two methods...

One is direct onto Nomad from your PC files, using the 'Browse' button under the normal posting box... In that case you can only post one photo per post AND it MUST be UNDER 50 kb. is file size. Since this is smaller than most all photos you have on you PC, you need to make a duplicate file with the photo size REDUCED to under 50 kb.

The BETTER way to show your photos is to hot link to them stored on another website... such as Photobucket.com. It is free (to a certain limit) and has an automatic resizing service... In this case, Nomad requests photos to not exceed 800 pixels in width.

On Photobucket, to upload from your PC,

1) click the red button 'Upload now'.

2) In the next window you see, at the top of the big box, in small blue letters, click: Customize your upload options

3) In the pop up see these choices (and more to resize to):
100x75
160x120
320x240
640x480
800x600
1024x768 ...

>>Pick 640x480 for most photos... this is the selection refered to as 'Large'.
>>Pick 800x600 for maps or max. detail images max. size to fit on 15" screens.

Click SAVE

4) Select photos (press Select Photos button) from your PC to resize and store on Photobucket. You can have multiple files to organize them.

Now, to put on Nomad!

1) Place your mouse arrow over the photo you want and get a small pop up with some codes for linking them to various media.

See the one called 'IMG code'? Click your mouse on it to copy it.

2) On the Nomad posting box, paste that code.

You can have text above or below the image link... have several images perhaps a dozen max... and then do a reply post to add more... so as to not have too many on a single frame.

The photo url begins with http:// and ends with .jpg (usually) and the IMG code puts your photos url between the tags [img] and [/img]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If your photo is already on a web site, you can click this icon located above where you type onto Nomad (not quick reply):



and just put in the image url, and the tags are automatically added on to show your photo here. (make sure the http:// isn't in the url twice)

Las Vegas


At one of many "Old West" places along the Highway.

But, I spent many happy days at Knotts before it ever became an Amusement Park in the Modern Sense. Great Chicken Dinners and Berry Pies.

Never went there after it changed.

I refused to take the kids there because I was offended at what they did to the place.

A good excuse, anyway.

I HATE Amusement Parks.
