New Photo..dodging nature in the '13
Beautiful day to tour. Had to dodge a family of geese, and we used to be able to drive out on the pier in the other picture, its the part thats under water to the right of the lamp poles. Been under about 6 inches of water since May with record high levels on lake Erie as well as the other Great Lakes. Posting from my phone so they're gonna be sideways but click on them.and they will be normal.

Looks like a nice day for a drive. The creek through my yard seems to be at a record low this year but it feeds into the Great Lakes so at least now I know where the water went!

Hey there Tim W! Fun photos from the seat of a beautiful car!
The sideways photos thing is annoying, but it isn't your fault. I do like the new forum's ability to show the pictures upright by clicking on them (usually seems to work). A few people I still know that are more "up" on current technologies tell me that the problem is the user not understanding the technology. I still maintain that the "user" is not supposed to understand all of the technology. That is the engineer's job. The engineer is supposed to design it to be used by people that do not understand everything about it. This is an issue where the phone/camera has the capability to sense "upright" and automatically embed it in the photo's orientation. If that information was properly sensed and embedded, it would turn upright automatically. This is an example of "gamer" mentality. They are more interested in bragging rights that they can do something that you cannot, than they are in designing something to work properly.
Okay. Personal rant/gripe over. A beautiful car being enjoyed the way a T should be!

I blame the buyer. If they did not purchase software that does not do what they want then the salesmen and marketing would allow the engineers to develop what you want rather than pushing to sell junk to you now
