The fish should be afraid.....very afraid!...........good luck guys, I'm sure you'll put the hurt on 'em
You'll probably never have a better chance to get a great picture of your fish!! :-)
"The day of the gill!.......Rain or shine!.......were talkin fish slime!....lol!.....I can feel the rod bending allready!....lol!.....Will be posting pics of course!.....
Guys, you have no idea how pumped I am! I'm tired as heck and feverishly tying flies still and its almost 11pm! Thanks for luck! Go Team Thumper!!
What a great day! The fishing wasn't the best though. We did manage to get some very nice fish, no hogs but close! This outing was just the first of many! Thanks again John for a great time! Pictures will up later tonight from the both of us!
Good catch this weekend. I was planning on going out but almost had a heart attack. My daughter got sick and had a seizure. Scared me senseless. She better now and hope we can get out there this afternoon. Good morning of fishing again.
Tommy, I hope your daughter is OK. Keep us updated.
Is anybody else seeing these photos all stretched out?
Yes....It is rather stretched. BBG.com is set up for a screen resolution of 1024x768. This photo was uploaded with a screen res. of 2000 x1229.....To prevent stretching in forums, resize pics to a max pixel width of 600.
Looks great on my end! I'm running a 20" iMac. I don't know if that makes a difference or not.
This is how it works.....70% of internet users have a screen resolution setting of 1024x768....at this resolution, the entire screen is utilized for standard size computer monitors....wide screen monitors are capable of reading images beyond the 1024x768 format of this site however, normal size monitor screens will read the height of the photo, but will limit its width to 600-735 pixels, or 6-7.35"....creating the stretched effect.
This will occur in all forums.....To prevent stretching, resize landscape images to 6"x4.5"....and limit potrait images to a width of 4.5".

This will allow everyone to see your beautiful pics!

Pics that are uploaded to your personal photos or albums are automatically formatted, and are not effected.
Ahhhhh!....Got it!......."Anything" kinda goes on our personal photo albums.....shrink em a "tat" for the others!........thanks Bill for the "heads up" once again!...appreciate it!.....I missed my "normal" sized screen of my old monitor but after replacing it with my widescreen....would never go back to the older screen size.....It took awhile to "adjust" to it but still like it now.....
