i was waiting for another ZIFF countdown to replace it ...... so now ill just take it down

and i volunteered to take over the site SO IT didn't get shut down and pay the fees for those who don't want to go to FACEBOOK ....

so the moral of the story ... there are people in the background who do care and i hope those remaining contribute

At one time this was the best outdoor forum online I try to post often but most of my posts won't let me add pictures so I give up trying each time definitely not much participation going on

I check in about twice or three times each week, but I'm relatively new here. 
I'm also not going to FB, so I guess I'm in that old guy club too.

With all respect, I have been asking Grazan to remove the Homepage banner (which was associated with me) since March 16th due to its inaccuracy and have Multiple P.M.'s to prove it. . . . . . . . .  . . . . . .to this day, I never received a response.

With eight (8) days left til opening day, you would think the link "Show us your 2025 Striper pics here" would have been updated for 2026 by now also, but I probably will not be participating this year anyway . . . . .Pity

I salute you guys for boycotting Facebook - I refuse to go there too

@Greensider - the pictures will post - but you have to run them thru some kind of software to reduce the size - there are lots of ways to do it. Unfortunately none of the compression programs are easy to use.

Greensider as far as pictures I use the stock Windows PHOTO program shown in the attachment ..... the very old PAINT also works ..... and I use the PERCENTAGE reducing feature to reduce the size of the photos .... when u open the photo unedited the program is viewing it a reduced percentage like 30% vs 100% ... if u change that to 100% and the picture is bigger than your screen then the picture is way too big ... i then start reducing the size by percentage until its small enough to post ....using your boat picture as an example i click the 3 dots for more options and one is RESIZE IMAGE
