Any fans here? Wow this is the first time I've heard this on cd. The double bass drums are really giving the system workout!

Thanks, Paul. Turned to Tidal and got a chance to hear a few cuts. Yeah, my speakers got a good workout.... ps to the audience....not music to fall asleep to 😳

Hey, Nick it's on Tidal? Can't listen to metal of this kind for too long these days. I wonder how I managed that decades ago?  :thumb:  Now for something a bit less stressful...



I got the remastered version of this from the local library.

Yes,
Hold two buttons on my iPad to take the pic and then manipulate in photos. Rich, what I don't know is why it displays as a small pic, then will enlarge when I double tap.  My Mac desktop gives me a lot more flexibility. But hey, it's a good start!

I was testing this and made a few attempts last night. Nothing happened on preview and then I made an attempt to post. At first when I tried it, nothing happened. I then tried some more and if i waited a bit, an error message appeared and stated that I exceeded the 500 kb limit.

Based on some more tests today, the 500 kb limit provides very good quality. So I don't think it's the limit we have in place, rather the ability to easily edit a pic to make it fit. Increasing the kb limit equals more cost for forum storage down the road. 

I'm just getting a handle on this, but that's how I see it right now. If I'm way off base, please feel free  to let me know. The feedback would be appreciated
Thanks,
Nick

PS Dave,
Can you advise what device(s) you use to take pics and if you've tried editing?

Thanks to malloy...from Tidal
Seeing the name Route 66 reminded me of George Maharis and Martin Milner and their adventures with their Corvette......
