Artsy-fartsy bastarard.

Seriously, dude...you've got an eye. As an ex-artist, I know whereof I speak. Nice work.

Oh, and BTW, Bill...it ain't an ADVenture until the weather tuns to shit. Anybody can ride when it's nice out. Those of us with huge, throbbing cojones just keep going. As the guy who binned it on the way to a Fall Rally and then slept in the gazebo at Tellico, you should know this. Christ, I miss you guys.

i wish there was a way to do multiple uploads at once on the FJ rally site.


KOokaloo!

ditto, i started to upload photos, but it was rather time consuming.  i'll load up some more i suppose, i just can't sit at the computer and load all the ones i want to at once, it would take a bit of time.

I get your frustration and understand your point.  Let me offer a counter-point.  This is not free unlimited hosting – I am not Google.  I have found that the quality (selection) of the photos is improved by uploading them one at a time.

For example - I had 223 photos that I took at the last 2010 West Coast Rally.  I narrowed it down and ended up only posting 79 photos.  I had to post them up one at a time and write a description just like everyone else.  Why did I take the time to do this?  Because they will always be there (as long as I keep paying the hosting fee) for myself and others to view and relive a few memories.

Here are Steve's 295 photos taken from the last WCR.  http://picasaweb.google.com/moparman70/FJRally2010WillitsCA?authkey=Gv1sRgCL__1e2KgrWoMA&feat=directlink#   They do not appear to have been narrowed down.  I find it much more interesting to browse through photos where someone has taken the time to hand pick out the interesting photos and has also taken the time to write some sort of comment to go along with the photo.

I want people to upload as many photos as they would like from a given rally.  That said – I would also like some thought put into which pics are uploaded.

All of the above being said: I have looked and have been unable to find an ASP based Photo Gallery that allows public uploading and offering multiple image uploading.

The FJRally site is becoming less relevant now anyways with the adoption of this forum.  If rally attendees start to not post up their pics – then I can save a few bucks and close down that site.

Is it possible to merge or move FJRally to FJowners?

sorry, marsh, if i came across wrong, it was meant more of blaming me for not having the patience, rather than complaining about the site.  i hope you knew that.  ( :

Dean & Frank - I didn't take anything personally from you guys - don't worry!    I just wanted to make my point and/or justification for the one-at-a-time photo upload thing on that website.  Like I said - I also have no choice/other option right now either.  I'm sure that as time and technology march on that we'll move on to some other way of sharing our photos anyway.  We could always just have a bunch of links listed to everyones personal flicker, picassa etc. galleries, even though that just seems inelegant to me.  It would totally work though if everyone kept their photos up.

It's all good!
