Recommendations
For better performance, it is highly recommended that the pictures you add to your post have the following characteristics:
- Maximum width: 650 pixels.
- Maximum height: 450 pixels.
- Density: 72 dpi (dots per inch).
Within these parameters, your pictures will most probably be smaller than 150 KB. Larger, heavier pictures will take longer time for you to upload and for your readers to download and view.
The purpose of this fly fishing forum is to encourage dialogue about anything having to do with the wonderful world of fly fishing - panfish to billfish. Subjects may range from tackle and techniques to casting, fly tying, knots and rigging, to fishing travel and outdoor photography - anything to do with our passion. As my guest, you are expected to follow the tenor of the board and use your real name (no "handles" or pseudonyms or anonymity). Your posts should always be civil and polite in tone. Flaming or disparaging remarks are not allowed. Begin a subject with a specific question or general comment, as I will often do. Bottom line: this board is a forum for the positive exchange of fly fishing information. It is a forum for learning, sharing, having fun, and making new fly fishing friends.
