John, the solution is quite simple really. Put me on ignore and that big photo rolls right up. All that is left is a little, pale yellow bar with the words
*** You are ignoring this user ***
Toggle the display of this post

You will not even notice that I have posted. smile

It was The Fuse that just a day or two ago ranted that everyone should ignore me, while he, himself, cannot. But you can. So can Kolar. Just put me on ignore and all your problems are solved instantly.

Both of you, and so many others, have ranted how I have nothing to add here, so what do you have to lose?

In the meantime, I find it humorous that "le Fusible" (perhaps mèche courte would be more appropriate, I'm not a francophile) wants to knock over whole racks of guns everytime he sees a Merkel. I find that humorous. Note that the photo at the top of forum is.... ta da!!!! A Merkel. It is a wonder that he can stand it here at all.

And then there is Ted who knows everything about old dogs and has to been critical of me and Gus many times. I find that equally worthy of reminding him, and everyone else. Pretty low character there, but that is Ted's style. I would love to switch out the photo now and again, but I do not use the Merkel often and do not have many pictures of Gus and that gun together. I guess I could got to two photos. One with a great shot of Gus and another of the Merk. I had not thought of that.

Last, I might note that almost every forum (and especially every forum that begs money from its users) has modern, up to date software that auto resizes photos. Dave loves to take your money, not mine, mind you, and spend it on beer instead of updating to modern standards. So largish photos persist.

I do not know how much longer I will keep that picture posted. I certainly like it, and Gus will not be with me much longer :), so I will enjoy seeing it even more. And I don't see those emotional ranters like Le Fusible and Ted and some of the others cleaning up their acts anytime soon, so you may as well enjoy it as much as I do and be grateful I don't post political pics of, say, Obama or Biden, etc. smile
