Here I am at a Dec. show. Either I'm really into whatever is we're playing, or I'm wondering why my shoe is untied.

Carnivore Fans Tony?

Fans of the band Carnivore? Or a meat eating crowd?

Midnight Blue in Malaysia (in front of national flower 'Bunga Raya' - Hibiscus).

And you thought I was a guy!!

Actually, its my daughter who is visiting from the states. BTW, maybe this is first post of 2006?

What does one do to get a larger photo that still falls within the posting specs (less than 36kB and smaller than 500x500). I had to shrink this down to 7% of original size and it IS shrunk!

You need some sort of graphics program that allows you to compress and resize. You should specify 72 dpi (monitor resolution), as any higher resolution is wasted and any lower will pixellate. A variable compression can give you .jpgs in the 500x375 range @ about 32.5K, which is about perfect.

You can try irfan.com for a good Windows graphics program...it's free and is called "Irfanview".

Probably a bit of both Marc!
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

I agree about FG & gold Brian. I wouldn't like it on the V64 because of the white binding. I even find the 660's a little odd with gold guards & check binding. I saw an ebay pic of a 330 with black guards with white edging. White guards with black edging would echo the checked binding on a 660 IMO. Having said all that, I am in the process of having a FG 360 from Mike at RicsRUs & this will get the 375 golded treatment, to match my 345.

& yes Howard, a pretty small place. I like the two 4x12's, but using just the one gives me a better stage balance in smaller venues.

Thanks for the advice Paul. Unfortuately I do not have photo-editting software other than EasyPhoto on this computer. Here is a larger photo using EP.

Actually, my daughter is a violin and piano player. She leaves the guitars to me and my son.
