Title: Interesting Photos "Topic"
Post by: Jim Filipski on June 05, 2008, 02:53:23 AM
Hi Guys,
Do you think we can possibly have an "interesting photos" topic where folks can post images of unique shots that don't necessarily need to have a thread(?)... such as "Hiney Muzzle treatments" or "Brass lock plates " or crazy engraving photos using strange head gear"?  Just the strange ...funny or unique photos for entertainment or knowledge  but not needing a full thread....
Just a thought ( after seeing Acer's photo with his jaeger)

Hey I use to be Goex's poster boy back in 1992! I would love to post that for the chuckles!!!!! (Not to mention the outtakes!) See what I'm getting at?
( I know, I know get back downstairs to that "faux Casteel" build you been doing for the past 5 years!!!!)

Hey, I did design their 80th Anniversary Can! ( $#*!, don't tell Dutch Bill!)
Jim
P.S. this new list has been too cold! In the immortal words of Pink Floyd..."Is there anybody out there!"

Jim, I think you're stalling. Get to work on bullet gun.

Headgear photos not permitted.

Gee  Tom, I knew that you would write! Actually I'm working on scaling an eagle for that cheekpiece. Nothing I hate more then taking a super fancy maple butt stock and plopping a metal eagle into all that nice curl! But this puppy has to be taking some serious antelope by September sooooo.... Yes , I will get busy.... I have just tried to get you lads out of hiding!!! It has been too quiet on our new "old Liste!"

Hey we are scheduled for some upper 90's in my area & hi humid! sooo now's the time to brown this bugger..... hope I remember how  .... I hate building hunting guns! Rather build for nobility! I hear, that's were the money is!

Since your looking for SERIOUS antelope, I guess you won't be hunting "on the range". Everybody knows that 'on the range' is 'where the deer and the antelope PLAY'

Don't let them fool you They are not playing they are plotting!

Anyway I was just thinking that on the old ALR we had a photo gallery ( well somewhat) and I know we don't want to fill our new server up with everybody's photos but maybe if we used our photo embedding feature (which just grabs it from authors oun site or photobucket we may be able to have some form of gallery without the overhead on our server and be able to access the posted photos without having to search in the archives .... I hope I'm explaining it correctly ......Well just a thought

The photo gallery would be OK if a Moderator would volunteer to jury what goes in and what doesn't.  ::) Would we just put in links to Photobucket etc just like we do on threads....to save server space? ;)

Here's a picture of my mom. This is the kind of photo we like to see, isn't it?

You sure we need moderation?
