    I wish Whiteblaze would allow full sized pics from our own computer files.
    I'll probably be dead before that happens. Flikr is owned by Yahoo and is no more likely to disappear than WhiteBlaze.

    Picasa shut down as did Webshots. It could happen to any business---even the Google photo cloud could go out of business.

    Of course, always possible...but by then this thread will probably be obsolete and forgotten about anyway.

    I don't have my photos on a photo sharing site so I can't post a link. Instead I've been using a photo editor to resize the images so they are not too large and upload to WB from my computer and then insert the thumbnail. They are not full size, but then they also don't use as much band width or memory when you load this page. When viewing on a small screen, full sized images are not really necessary, plus by uploading, there is no link to go bad. If you you want full sized version of my pics, just send me a PM and I can make them available.

    The only reason I really use Flikr is because my WordPress account limits my photo storage so when I write a blog post for any of my hiking or roadtripping trips I don't end up using my WP space as it is extremely limited (I had already used over 60% of available space with only a handful of blog posts).

    Thanks...
    While I think thumbnails are usually appropriate, for a post such as this, the full size seems much better.

    I'm the OP - still here, and still enjoying the pictures. After 20 years using a cheap monitor, I purchased 2 very nice curved monitors. So I enjoy pictures in a new and better way. Please keep them coming.

    Like most I have documented most every trip I have taken on the AT, and other trips. I got a good one for ya. What is cool about this photo is that both people in the picture helped take the photo, there was no tripod, a hand (or two) held the camera (iphone...hint hint..) the whole time. There was not a 3rd person present

    Did one take half the picture and the other take the other half (panoramic)?

    Correct, In picture 1 ol no shirt took the first half of the pano, once I was out of frame, ran and took the camera and he got into place for his half of the photo.

    In photo 2, same concept but same guy in 2 spots of pano. Makes for fun and a neat picture!

    This was taken somewhere in Pennsylvania in early morning. The sun rays was awe inspiring.
