Marc,

While we are glad to have you aboard, there is something that you seem to have missed.

Only about half of the followers here use the forum interface. The other half get this as an e-mail list. Most of the e-mail readers are working with limited bandwidth. All of us suffer with limited and expensive bandwidth while we are traveling. We all try to travel a lot. That makes including a picture in a posting very unpopular. There is a means to include images that is easy to use, it is written up at the top of the forum entry page. Those pictures that are important should be posted with an appropriate title in the GMC photo site so that they can be referenced as needed.

We had a writer here that insisted on putting a selfie w/coach in every message. I don't know about the others, but I was forced to use the "Ignore" feature and have used it for him only. I do have broadband when moored at home, but on the road bandwidth is problematic and expensive to use when I can get it. On the backhaul leg of our recent excursion to Shawnee for the Spring Convention, we were two separate days with no usable high speed access available. When one is out of urban areas and away from interstate, this is a common issue.

And, those that get the e-mail never see either Swap Meet or Sandbox.

As said, glad to have you aboard.

Matt
