I am trying to get a online photo gallery going.
The one I am trying rants about how easy it is to use but I find that not to be the case in my case.

It may just be that it isn't my forte but WIX, although very pretty seems more than I want to handle.

Purpose of gallery is to share photos with friends and family and customers.


Just send links to a Dropbox account.

But, a nitwit responding in the comments section on a camera listing is such an authoritative source ...


Are you sure it was a real nitwit? Not just some nitwit wannabe? Are they certified by the Nitwit Eligibility Society Team (NEST)? In case you were wondering what happened to the Idiot in Society group, they reorganized following the Monty Python debacle to form NEST, now the premier idiot interest organization.

I want to do extreme cropping on my wildlife images.


OK. You want the best FF at the highest cost with $12,000 and up lenses.

I have a Canon 5d3 and 7d2. i'm considering another body before mirrorless takes over the universe. I was thinking adding a Canon 5DS R. What are the pros and cons of this decsion?


Really depends on what you photograph and what your goals are. Without that info, this question is pointless.

Some of us here are over fifty, and there's a rumor going around that people over a certain age have to "exercise" their brains to keep them working properly. I think I've stumbled on a pretty good way of doing that.

I know that most of us have different brands of cameras, and they all have different Menus and controls. I like to switch between Nikon, Sony, and Fuji to mix things up and remember how to use them. Bringing all three with me in the car and driving somewhere to shoot is a fun way to not only use different cameras, but also to exercise my brain - remembering how to use the different controls and Menus.

I wonder if such travel could be considered a medical deduction.

"Some of us here are over fifty"

LOL! ROTFLMAO!
Over 50!!! "SOME"!!!!
Ok, there may be one or two under 50, I guess, but do we listen to them???
Should we?

My R6 did the same thing but at shutter speeds below 1/60 of a second. I tried using a tripod and the blurryness went away. Perhaps Canon sould supply a tripod with their cameras


Perhaps Ferrari should supply talented drivers with their automobiles.

See responses below:
In the immortal words of Bart Simpson, "Duh, dude!" Have you ever noticed that UHH threads stretching across 10-20 pages tend to be about the most picayune of subjects?

Is mirrorless better than sliced bread? (What does bread have to do with being mirrorless?) Bread is mirrorless

Does a bear c__pping in the woods make a sound when the tree falls on it? (Yes, it grunts!) They seem to manage to c___ without a mirror

Is the reason behind a mortuary's dumpster fire related to that rabid squirrel on the patio? (NO! What the...) OK. Squirrels like mirrors. They are weird that way. But HEY they a squirrels!

Do all BB guns shoot your eye out when unwrapped in the forest? (Potentially... but no. Probably not.)THEY WILL PUT YOUR EYE OUT. But you are getting off topic! Christmas is still a long way off!

What's the difference between a rock and a hard place, anyway? (One of its stones is both the same!) Which would not matter if they would just leave mirrors behind!

Where can I go to get my speakers neutered? (Any local rifle range...) Neutering a speaker is just mean. I can't believe Admin allowed this to pass!

How many angels can swim in a mud puddle? (As many as want to, but why would they?) OK.
You got me there.


Which of these three greased pigs has a $1000 bill stuffed inside? (Let's find out! You go first. I'll wait in the car.) Hint. It is the brand name ham!

Sheesh! C'mon, folks, we can use this forum for more important discussions than whether one camera or computer or film or... is "better" than another. Or bread...

Thanks for the listing of techniques to obfuscate the written word. Interesting.


LOL. Reminds me of D. Huff's famous 1954 "How to Lie with Statistics" Intended as a primer on spotting a bad statistic, but often used more consistent with his tongue in cheek title.

By the way, if you have never read it, it is awesome. Back when I was in that game, I had stacks of copies that I gave to newly elected novice office holders.

Arial is not bad if used in short line lengths, with generous line leading, and without right-hand justification. But set a paragraph of Arial Regular, 10/11 (ten points leaded one point), with an 8-inch column width, fully justified, and that can be a problem. The lines run together, and the eye has a hard time finding the start of each line after reading the previous one.

There is a good reason newspapers use serif fonts for article text, and most book publishers use serif fonts, too. In controlled tests, it is faster to read serif fonts than sans-serif fonts. It is also possible to use smaller serif fonts with the same readability as larger sans-serif fonts.

Yes! The serif helps with eye movement.
