fuzzy pictures

[rlux4]

Anyone know why my picture posts look fuzzy? I'm using an 8 mega pixel camera, so it seems like the clarity should be better. My avatar is real bad, the original is clear and it's a neat shot of the car out in the Mojave desert, but it looks like a red spot in an unkempt yard!

To me, your pics dont seem fuzzy at all, rather good.

Thanks pope. Maybe it's my computer.
I'll take a look at it from the computer at the shop.

OH! I thought it was a red dot in the hot desert sun!! Ya mean, it's not?

actually, what i see is a rectangular picture that has been squeezed into a square. i know it is a spider, but only cuz i know it is...not from what i see. Maybe if you cropped the original into a square, it would look better?

You know what Mike, that makes sense! I'll try it, see if I can do that with my limited computer skills. Thanks buddy.

I thought it was your kids' pedal car sitting in the yard

[pope]

I thought it was shot in wide angle! Whoops. Looks very good now

[mbouse]

that's better!! Now it looks like a very very far away Fiat Spider!!

[rlux4]

My car is not far away Mike, it's faaar out!

[racydave]

yea, rub it in, you CA guys... just try and find a covered bridge for your shot in the desert!

[rlux4]

Ouch! But I know what you mean Dave. My wifes family is in Williamsport Indiana. When we visit back there I can't resist the covered bridges. And Turkey Run. And Amish country. And big front porches with neighbors sitting on porch swings being friendly.
But hey, we have lots of sunny days. And high taxes. And too many people.
I wanna go home.

Sorry, weve been patiently waiting for Spring, My folks met in the Horse stables at Turkey Run, one of my favorite spots! Last summer, my daughter and I came home from a car show in Michigan and drove thru Amish country, she was tickeled pink lookin at the beards, and the horSes and buggies. Come visit in a month!

hores and buggies.

OK.I know you think I'm picking on you tonight (I AM) but that first word is missing a letter. It's either a W or another S. I hope it's the latter, or you got different kinds of Amish over there than we do.

I also got tickled pink when I saw the buggies, but when the "hores" were there, being as I was with my wife, I had to pretend not to see them.
