  1.   I have not used Photobucket, but I can say that I have used Picasaweb for a long time with no real complaints.  As with anything, you have to learn how to use it, but it is pretty easy after you use it a bit.  I wouldn't pay for a service as I don't see what it could do that Picasaweb can't. 
  2. You do realize he was not driving right? Not saying I agree with the suit, but it wasn't him that crashed. He was the passenger and was trapped in the car while it was on fire.
  3. Not to put down photobucket, but Picasaweb will take any size. I would find it very annoying to have to manually reduce every photo I wanted to upload. I think Picasa may automatically reduce the size a little, but upload speeds are very good. Not trying to make anyone change, but that seems like a pretty annoying issue considering every photo is large today with the quality of devices we have.
  4. Is it faster than Photobucket?  I have never used it (Photobucket that is).
  5. There you go.
  6. Almost, you have to use the add image button in TGO and then paste the URL into that.     I should have added, I usually only add images using the website.  I don't really add images using Tapatalk, so it could be a bit different using it.
  7. You need to set the album properties to "share with anyone with the link. It defaults to where only you can see it for Security. Adding where to do this for anyone else.
  8. Make sure to select image only and use the link from Embed Image
  9. Yes, you can link to just the image, or share the entire album, etc. It also lets you pick the size of the pic, etc. It's pretty easy to use. Here is a screenshot of the UI. You can also drag drop photo's from your computer. You simply select Upload, or if you are in an album, just select Add Photo's. It's Google so I suspect it does everything most other sites do.
  10. I use Picasaweb from Google.  Never have an issue.
  11. Not sure where you are staying, but I would highly recommend staying in downtown.  Yes, it will be more expensive, but I think you will find that it is much more convenient and after taxi fair's, tips, etc, not much more expensive than just staying there.   If you are only going to be there one afternoon, evening, there is plenty to see just walking downtown.  As much as the places you go, it is really about the atmosphere overall.  I think the country music hall of fame is worth it even if you aren't a country fan.  Go to the Hermitage hotel and have a drink at the bar, and just stop in where you think it looks interesting.  
  12. I got mine today and am so happy to be off of android. B Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. You can't.  You can only edit one.  So if you are the OP, then just edit it to say Removed or something like that.
  14. I wish I could give you some tips, but I don't think most of the places I went to are still around.  I lived in Daytona for college 20 years ago.  There was a place called Booth's Bowery though that used to have awesome wings.  Not sure if they are still there and if it is still any good, but may be worth a look if your in the mood.  They were on South Nova Rd in Port Orange.
  15. I think you will find that if you post it here, many of us will not go through the extra hassle of doing a transfer unless of course it was some super special gun.  It not only adds cost to the gun, it isn't required by law.  That being said, you have to do what you are comfortable with.     Requesting an HCP to be shown is not a big deal.  Asking many to sign a bill of sale will also limit you some.  It isn't that any of us are trying to hide something, it is simply that we don't like to share our private info.
  16. Not sure if you bought anything yet.  I was just perusing Whittaker's new arrivals and they have a Franchi 48AL 20 listed.  Have to call for price, but they usually are better than anywhere.

    Call Whittakers in Owensboro KY. They might.
  18. That was pretty terrible, but I like the effort. 
  19. I play a bit on FanDual. I pay more attention to some games I wouldn't otherwise care about. I don't spend a lot,but I enjoy it.
  20. That's going to be pretty hard to get anything into.  Even a syringe with wood glue will most likey not penetrate deep enough to really fix the issue.  A slow drying cyanoacrylic may seep about as good as anything and would probably work as well as wood glue at this point.  I think both wood glue and epoxy will be too thick to be effective.   A trip to Woodcraft in Franklin may be worth it. http://www.woodcraft.com/product/149430/instant-bond-ca-adhesive-thin-2oz.aspx
  21. Biggest difference between high end scopes and lower end scopes is mostly how clear they are at high magnification as well as how well they work in low light, meaning early mornings and late evenings.  High end scopes like Swarovski, Zeiss, and Kowa are used for their clarity, especially by bird watchers and digiscopers, but they also run 2-4k.  Not something most want to invest in if they don't need the best low light performance.   With that said, to see a 22 at 400 yards on paper still requires a pretty nice spotting scope.  Minimum of 65mm objective, but something in the 80mm is even better.    Without knowing what you consider to be too high, I would consider the Vortex Razor 20-60, a mid-high range spotting scope that is a best value for what you get.  it still isn't cheap at $1500, but when you want to get close to the big boys without breaking the bank(relative I know, but in spotting scopes for what it is, this is pretty cheap for what you get), it is about your best option.  Find a demo or used one for $1200 and you have a lifetime no questions asked warranty.   You can certainly get a spotting scope for less than $500, but there is a big jump in loss of quality, especially at the higher magnification.  Eye relief also takes a big hit.  I started with a Redfield which was pretty good out to 200 yards, but when I started to go out to 500+, it just couldn't cut it.   The Pentax 80 is also a great scope and it is around $800.  Lower than than, the Konus brand and Celestron brand are some to consider.  Without a real figure to go from, it is still hard to make a recommendation.  If you want some real good reviews, check the bird forums. 
  22. Ah, for some reason I had in my mind Beretta. Thanks for the clarification.
  23. I just ordered one this morning from Midway by chance.  They have $30 off $300 which brings it down to $350.  That was the cheapest I could find it.  I will keep my ProChrono for pistols, but am looking forward to this for rifles.   Great idea Caster.  I will use that tip as well.   The Labradar looks cool, but I didn't like that it only detected up to 3900 fps.  I have some 22-250 and 204 rounds that are well above that.  Plus it was very expensive.  Cool idea, but I think still in the work out the bugs stage.
  24. Payment sent via PayPal.
  25. Franchis' are made by Beretta. They are pretty decent. If I wanted to save a few bucks, I would not be afraid to buy a Franchi. That being said, I prefer Beneli's personally.
