Keurig has a mini version which fits easily in the Pod. It sells for $99.00 but with discounts and Kohl's cash we got ours for $42.00.

If you don't have the Picture Manager, just search the net for any one of a thousand free programs that can down-size large pictures.  Just be careful to download from a reputable site to help prevent a trojan/virus.  If you aren't sure, post the URL here and I'll give you my opinion.]]> Tue, 24 May 2011 22:22:31 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1689&PID=15956#15956 Newbies : About your pictures, you have... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1689&PID=15910#15910 Author: Hodge-PODge

About your pictures, you have to find some way to "compress" them for a Web page so that means converting them using some kind of software.  Microsoft Office Picture Manager will let you resize the picture with a "compress" option for web pages.

Others on the forum may have other ideas.  Good luck!

The pod is packed and tomorrow after work we are loading the dogs into the truck and heading out for our first weekend trip.  We are going to a state park we used lots when we camped in a VW camper when the kids were little.  It will be fun, and give us a chance to learn how to pod camp.  I bet I have questions on Sunday when we get back.]]> Thu, 19 May 2011 20:04:04 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1689&PID=15744#15744 Newbies : Originally posted by Keith-N-DarQuestion:... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1689&PID=15544#15544 Author: psaman

I'm STILL Ouch camping in the driveway!  It will be Memorial Day before I can go camping for real.  But I am driveway camping (and in the R-POD a lot ) -- I'm outfitted, ready to go, and all systems are checked out and working.  I will tell you I may not have been camping for real, but I am VERY familiar with how everything in the POD works.  A lot of that is due to these forums, of course.
 
So Keith-N-Dar, just follow Outbound's advice.

I found three within a reasonable range, and got a good price.  We pick up our 177 on Friday.  Sadly we will not be able to camp now until after Memorial Day, but then can do a shakedown trip.  This summer we can do long weekends, and in fall take a real trip west.  I can hardly wait.  Come on Friday!

2011 R-Pod 177, Earth interior, all the goodies!

Hi and welcome Keith and Dar,
  I'm sure you will enjoy your 177 as much as we do. Yesterday we sat in there all afternoon drinking tea with some friends and listening to the rain on the roof.  Afternoon turned into evening and the tea to beer and pizza and our friends thought the R-pod the best feature of our garden.
  Enjoy!Big smile
