G'day,

Bdub hit a home run with the current color scheme on the Photo Site - BLACK
and WHITE!

I'll say it for him; "if you don't like it - piss off!" ;-)

Regards,
Rob M.

Rob,

Mickey's posts can be different -- but I enjoy reading what he writes. In the case of the skunk -- I thought he was refering to your NASA and "skunk works projects" from the other thread.

With the thumb nails at the bottom the pictures don't print out the
same size at when the thumb nail were over on the right side.
Especially noticeable when printing out mrerf really good powerpoint
picture albums. Made the pictures smaller. The new color schemes
have also change the color layout of the powerpoint albums. The
original color layout was much better for those pictures.

Dennis,

Mickey's posts are cryptic to me most of the time. I try to help him when I
can decipher what he is asking.

I never worked for Lockheed just 33 years and 3 months with Hamilton
Standard so I didn't make that connection, however, since skunks are black
and white and that's the way I see stuff pretty much I ran with it.

Regards,
Rob M.

John,

If you click on the picture doesn't it go to full screen? This should allow printing just that picture and not the menu, other thumbnails, etc.

Larry,

I have a Canon MX860 Multifunction printer. I clicked on one of Gene's
presentation pictures and it filled the screen. I then right clicked and
selected Print.

When the print window popped up I went in and set it to Landscape - Fit to
size - Preview Print - Apply.

When I hit print the Preview popped up and it did not fill the page.

Regards,
Rob M.

Oh Oh Oooohhh. Noooo??!!

My IPhone will no Longer link to any of the linked pictures, the descriptions of the picture can't be retrieved, the phone will not allow zooming in and the pictures that I do get only use 1/4 Of my screen. Bad for an old bat like me I'm not able to get another computer to see how that may be different.
Now, I'm no longer part of the crowd.

Do I need to make new adjustments or is the new picture software not compatable with my iPhone Help please

The phones seem to invite a default mobile down load from the site. The mobile settings are really only a thumbnail viewer for pictures.

May I suggest you disable the mobile optimized setting in the site software so the mobile devices simply use the Internet explorer software resident on the phone. The mobile viewer really is far too simplified to be really useful.

( much the same as my eBay app does not let me do what the classic site will)

It also seems that using the phone to access the photo site directly, the home page is fine but as soon as I want to get to any photo, the mobile default kicks in again. I looked throughout my I phone settings to see if I could block the mobile request. But nothing here.
Hope this helps somewhat.

Best regards

Seems he has changed the settings again.

While it doesn't look flashy, it certainly seems usable. At least with Firefox and Linux on a desktop PC.

The copy write disclaimer at the bottom of the frame on each page is
