The forum takes up to 1280x1280 pictures. If you need to resize, Fastone Photo Resizer works well and is free.

Another nice thing about uploading to the forum is that the pictures will stay here and not go away if someone deletes their photobucket account/pictures...
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Is this the RIC you're going to unfret? By the way, nice Azola Bugbass too! I visited Steve Azola at his shop quite a number of years ago.

Hey Nathan....no not this one. I loaded the '14 with a Wilder vintage harness and Dunlop Super Brite nickels.....sounds fabulous and that's how it will stay. The one I'm converting to fretless, is an '88 JG with black hardware and a back bowed neck. It will be totally disassembled and will feature CB binding and a 1/4 sawn ebony board....maybe some HB-1's; of course all in black. Bought it off "rickaddict" for a good deal.....nice guy to deal with!

I went back to using rounds on a couple of my basses. My Jazzer has super slinkys, my 75 got the GHS Boomers and the 4003w got super slinks as well. I really like the super slinks a lot

My trick to resizing without software is to post the image to facebook first - (in a private album if you don't want your facebook friends to see them).

I then save the facebook version and presto the new smaller file is automatically in the correct size and resolution to post to the RRF.

No fuss - no muss! lol
