Suggestion: Buy a couple memory sticks and mail those back and forth. Storage is cheap these days, as is postage.

Seriously Mike?
Tman and the KTB do more for ski forums than 99.9% of the membership as a whole already.I donate my time to some editing and posting with occasional commentary/remark..They do enough and I do enough already. No one has more time to invest in the project, nor should they find it considering the level of respect being shown here recently. They are mainly Bruce's pix, so he's always free to do what he wants with them, but over the years we have developed a certain amount of trust that's hard to come by in these cyber regions. :lol:

Doesn't really matter anymore Ron. You're going to be down to Tele East pretty soon here, so you can take their suggestions.

I'd give you a couple sticks if it was of any consequence... not anymore I guess...

If certain posts disappear in this thread, it's probably because I have asked Johnny to remove the garbage so, once again, people can enjoy viewing the pics which, according to hit count, obviously a lot of folks across the globe do. The recent snarkfest that took place in this thread has made it rather difficult to find the gems in the garbage, so I hope Johnny finds time to clean the mess up. Though I never took any of the repartee seriously ( the few that really did WERE trolled) being that I was and am certain it was just an old forum friend or 2 doodling around with puppets..But still, it all got out of control -- just too much front page noise. Now, should I be banned , I have also asked requested that this whole thread be removed from the forum ; it's only fair as I put a hell of a lot of time into creating and keeping this thing going. If I continue to post pix here, they will be according to my own taste-- effects, borders etc or not..I don't have time to take orders; this ain't fuckin Wendy's..
Oh, and BTW, nice work Climbhoser.
Adios!
