Re: The Best of 2013 - Year In Review

Awesome photos gang! I hope more folks contribute!

Have been away from BCP for about 6 weeks but still lurk daily. Just been quite living life since the fly-in getting ready for my heli ski season.

Happy New Year to all! Thanks Z for your continued efforts on this time taker of a site! =D>

Here are some of my favorites from the summer. Seems like I have over 5000 photos but these are a quick edit to share.

I don't get around to posting much, but sure enjoy watching the action on this site. Thanks for making it all happen Zane! If any of you westerners come east, look us up in Maine sometime!

You're close. You copied the wrong image URL. You got the thumbnail URL instead if the actual image.

When you're viewing your image in the gallery, click the "Image URL" link in the toolbar directly above the image. That will open a new tab. Copy the URL from the web address field or you can do the right mouse click -> copy image URL thing too. Use that for future reference.

For this post, click the edit button (pencil icon) and go through and remove the thumb_ from each one as I've done to your first image. They'll all show up normal sized after you save it.

Referencing images by URL is how image posting is done all around the Internet on a multitude of software, and it's the core concept users must understand for posting photos. You just about got it.

Re: The Best of 2013 - Year In Review

2013 has been an eventful year for our family with a long distance move and lots of work travel during the second half. We have tons of great photos from the OK-18 fly-in, our trip to Alaska, and the Lake Minchumina rock skipping contest. Of all the great photos and videos, the following is my favorite. Our 11-month old enjoying the activity at Gastons during the OK18 fly-in.

2014 looks to bring lots of time away from home. I'll be relying on you scoundrels to provide the flying entertainment.
