Title: Taking the Time
Post by: Sasquatch on January 29, 2016, 12:47:03 pm: Guy's this section of PA is getting SLOW. I look at this section everyday. Sometimes there are not points posted for days. Lets bring it back. Everybody likes looking at the points,knives,etc. There is a little to much Talking and not enough Knocking. Lets do our best to post our points when we make them. Hopefully we will generate some more traffic.

here is some stuff.

There seems to be no way to edit the data size except by cropping, and I don't have any use for that. It's import/export options are totally inadequate. If it were otherwise, I would be posting a few.

That is nice work Nathan.

Those are some really nice knives and points..

i send you my deepest condolences ;D

just bypass that mac 'photos' application and upload to an online image server, it cost a thousand times less than your mac and it is extremely forum friendly.
