pix

Hi! I've added some pictures to my photo gallery of a temporary shelter that I put up for Spydie; however, they look distorted. Does anyone know why? I have the same camera as before. v

Hi Vicki, How have you been??? The reason the photo's look strange is because Mars isn't aligned with Jupiter. Another explanation is the gravitational pull of the earth is greater in Tennessee thus re-aligning the digital pixels.

Larry! I knew you'd come up with an answer I can actually work with. ha

I am feeling much better now; however, it took much longer than anticipated. Just glad to be driving again! v

Vickie, if by "distorted" you mean the weird pixelization and colors when I click on and open the attached photo's to your post, that is just low resolution. Try upping teh res on your camera, bigger size.

I opened both and they don't seem distorted at all proportion wise...

Vicki, Larry is correct, it is your resolution. When you open this image in the program where you edit it there will be a place that tells you the size of the image and the resolution. The resolution should be somewhere between 50 and 72kb for good viewing on the internet, and the size along the longest side of the picture should be about 450 pixels. If it says the pixels are less, you simply type in a larger pixel number, usually under the pixels there will be a size calculated for you in inches or centimeters.If the size in inches is about 4"x6" that should make a very clear image. Try that and see what happens. Good luck.

Thanks for changing my name to Larry, Carl.

Come on Doug, it was just an honest mistake.

Actually, I was thinking the information you wrote LOL

Sorry to come across negatively. Didn't mean to. This winter is just taking it's toll on me. I need a Spyder ride.

Doug--where are you that you can't get out in your car? I should know, but can't remember. v

Hi Vicki, I'm up near Grand Rapids, Michigan. Local temp right now is 5.5F and we have about 6" of snow on the ground, more on the way. Spydie is up on stands in the garage resting. Unfortunately the garage is uninsulated so it's too hard to heat when it gets that cold. I'm planning on insulating it but first I need to have the concrete pumping guys come in and "lift" the floor that is slowly sliding down the sand dune the house was built into. Right after I stabilize the same dune that is sliding into the lake....

Anyone ever converted a Spyder to a snowmobile or ice racer?
