kymooses, how about Sunshine Yellow, or Burnt Orange, or Mauve?  Oh heck, I just looked up Mauve because I wasn't sure what color it actually was....  yeah, its the color we already have.  Doh!
 
David, I agree, but you are right this is what we have.  One way that I think is easier is if a user already has a picture hosting service (Photobucket, etc), then you only have to put a link in your post here pointing to the picture.  Instead of jumping through hoops to upload it here first.

First, one thing I don't like, in general, is posting pictures....such a pain!  But, I don't think there is much that can be done - given the software package.

 

Second, lousy typer that I am, even I can out-type this software - having to often "back up" and correct errors - what's up with that?       


Aww, but the pictures are one of the things that make this forum great!
 
Agree 100%...looking at them is great! Thumbs Up
 
Trying to get a 1.5 - 2.0 MB file down under the 500KB "speed limit" Thumbs Down
 
(also for Tech) Yep, I have read where using sites like photobucket makes it easier but, I'm too stubborn and mule headed to do that.  I want my Windows XP back - I could just resize pictures with that. LOL

Thanks for the tip, but no Mac here.  I'm a slave to the Microsoft empire - presently running Vistas.
Thanks also for the good grade! Smile
 
This program has a spell checker (upper left hand icon when writing a reply) but, I'm too stubborn and mule headed to download it.  I usually just sit at the keyboard and slam something out - hoping that it ends up "able to be understood without great difficulty". LOL
 
When I want to do a "good" post - "good" meaning that I want to give the appearence that I am reasonably intelligent and have, at least, a modest command of the english language - I'll usually type it out in MS Word; then cut & paste.

OK....I see I can't get you all riled up over the afforementioned items, so let's see if I can get you growling and bristling over this!
 
Camping with kids and Camping with pets threads see very little activity.  What would you think about replacing them with something like:
Hitching and towing (we get a lot of posts about this subject)
RV 101 - Basic stuff for the new Pod or TT owner
OR...(your suggestion)

David, I like the topic ideas you mentioned:
a) hitching and towing
b) basic stuff for the new pod
 
All the newbies seek that info, and some of us other members need refreshers or reminders, or just need expert advice on hitching and towing.  Good thinking -- another A+ for you!

David, I also like the idea of various topics.  With the expertise of many things on this forum from all of the members, we could all gain a world of knowledge about RVs and camping.  I know there are alot of great chefs out there, I would like to see a topic on outdoor cooking and grilling, to include not only receipts but also the kind of cooking grills that people are using out there, should be very interesting.  Thanks !

Keep the feedback coming folks! 
 
Harleyguy - we have something close called Cook'n with gas that doesn't get a lot of activity also.  Maybe we could re-title it to something that would encourage broader material, like you suggest - thanks!
Grill'n and Chill'n
Roast'n and Boast'n
Cook'n and....and....... I can't think of anything that rhymes with cook'n Embarrassed
 
Help me out here folks!  What do you think?

I like something like the Rv101 idea.  Place to talk about some more of the technical stuff maybe?
