Ok, I didn’t get a chance to check back here before I posted the boobies, but going forward I think it will go in the boobies! Probably the first link will be the one we use.

I didn’t really have a problem with it (but I have an A+ so that might had something to do with it) but you could take out the grade and just leave the percentage. I’m guessing you were searching for something to replace the “Ultra/Elite/etc Farktographer” statistics. If that’s the case, I bet schnee wouldn’t mind if you carry that rating over, just ask. That was a rolling formula based on some equation he came up with that weighted more for a lot of recent participation but still had a small penalty for large gaps. It would lend some continuity as we transition to the new site.

Speaking of which, is Bibliostats ready for primetime (i.e. linkage in the boobies post)? We all know that no one reads the boobies anyway but since the FSM isn’t collecting new data we’ll be taking that link out. Anyone curious could come find out the link is here from reading the forum but I didn’t want to start linking it in the boobies unless you were ready for potentially greater traffic.

That’s fine. The Giants stadium is beautiful too, I’ve been there 2 or 3 times. I saw Greg Maddux win his 300th game there (go Cubs :P)

I agree – better used in portal through

Amazing! Thank you!

Took me a second but you can clearly see there are stairs in the picture. Cool shot!

See Canon users aren’t just the debbil, they’re also hipsters.

One of my friends has a business start up so I’m probably going to give it to him. But yeah, it’s basically designing an ad on Google. When people click it, you pay Google for the advertising.

I love the one with Atrus sitting on the bench looking ahead at the boardwalk.

As much as I’d like to see my personal stats, I’d rather not have the site become a burden to you either. Also, if there’s any way we can help you please let us know.

We are planning on buying a terabyte server for our house that will be connected to our network at home and periodically putting our files there. You can get a terabyte hard drive for $80-$100. This is great if you have multiple people who are using your storage space. If you’re anything like me and orionid you’ll eat through 10 gigs too quickly with multiple people wanting to use the file space. On my laptop alone I have over 100GB of photo data, and that’s just from last Christmas to now.

Granted I keep all my RAW images and I should go through each upload and trash the blurry, blank and black ones but I’ll probably just do that once we get our new house and set up the network.

If you’re already a Flickr Pro, you can set up private sets to keep your personal photos backed up on Flickr but not viewable to anyone but you or anyone marked family in your contacts. There’s no upload limit for paid Flickr accounts. Using personal website file space is a good idea but the bottom line with any storage or back up is that bad things can happen. Like you noted, external or internal errors happen (I am still toting around an old external HD that went belly up and I hope to get recovered some day) and websites can crash or have their servers have errors too. Redundancy -having more than one backup location- is the only way to really protect your files entirely.

^ This is pretty much exactly what I planned on doing

[Kestrana]

wait…you DONT do 35 in a 25?

[Kestrana]

I was able to see them in the thread about 5 minutes ago. Refresh/check another browser?
