I am accustomed to posting images on other forums where I just insert my image from after clicking the "insert image" icon and pasting a direct link from Postimage.
When I do that here I get file size too large or some other rejection. I have resizes my photos but still have trouble. What again is the correct method on this forum. Possible sticky?

Try the “manage attachments” button below the reply box. You first click on the “go advanced”, then do the manage thing to upload an image from your computer or tablet. The hit the “close window” button at the bottom. Then click the reply.

Thanks very much.
Works but seems unnecessarily complicated.

The go advanced is what I have to do also.

The "insert image" icon here has given me trouble as well. I never use it.

You can post a direct link by using BB code. The code for posting images is: put your direct link here

From postimage, I find it easier to copy and paste the info from the "Hotlink For Forums" box. It already has the appropriate code added.

It also seems to resize the image some. The image I uploaded above is 4832 x 2718, but posts here as:

Resizing the image to 1000 x 562 gives this:

Thank you.
Can you make this a sticky?
Looks like a scene out of Breaking Bad.

I love Greg’s backyard/playground. Not much shade though. :cool:

I see his trophy wife stayed in the car, probably plumb hot.

I do love the backyard/playground too.

Major points is a very good thing. Yall don't wander into them holes do ya. Could be snakes and spiders and all sort of scary things in there.

I didn't see any critters, but there were some droppings. I didn't check any of the side tunnels. I'm pretty sure this was (is?) a lead mine. If I'm right about the location, thediggings.com has it listed with production spanning 1918 -1919. There was an old stacked stone building foundation down below it. It's a single track up to the mine, so we parked the Jeep at a spot above that building (where we could turn around) and hiked the rest of the way up. That proved to be a good plan as the trail stopped at the mine and there wasn't a lot of maneuvering space there.

It just seems right to ask, what is the carry gun while hiking in the AZ desert like that?

I'm sure there's no shortage of options and all very good ones at that.

I have to wonder if you get cell reception out there in case the jeep don't start.

When a hike is planned, I generally prefer my PW45, but that can change on a whim.
The photos are from a trip we took to Quartzite, AZ. (my wife really likes a jerky shop there and it was a nice day for a drive). For that I had my P365 on me and a HK P30L in a sling bag (I keep my CZ Phantom ready in a similar bag). I felt that combo would be sufficient for the trip and a short foray into the desert by Jeep.:)
Cell reception can be spotty, so I carry an inReach Explorer satellite communicator.

A P30 and a Phantom, I can relate to both of those. I shoot the Phantom much better but it is upgraded with CGW parts. But the HK just runs and runs.

This bring back plesant memories of my days exploring Arizona desert country back in the early 80's. Sometimes my then GF and I would scout out areas by plane and then drive them in my off-road 4x4 a day or so later.

Great idea that sat communicator. We in the cities always assume we are near a cell tower or wi-fi. In today's world the sat communicator is built into most cars.
