Hahahha! Awesome, Smithy.
If anyone has a question, please raise your paw.

Well, I’m so glad we have a separate thread for cats so we don’t gum up the coronavirus megathread. Now where were we? Oh right. Having a conversation about picture uploading.

Re: Kat Klub
The only reason is my enormous inertia. I'd taken those pictures on January 1, 2020 and did not put them here until today 2 1/2 months later. And, those were the resolution that they were already in. Having to do anything with those pictures, i.e., changing their resolutions, is just going to result in another inertia excuse.Xan wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 2:48 pm There isn't too much reason to upload an enormously high resolution picture here, but there currently isn't a board limit. But PHP has a configuration setting for the max amount of memory it will use to process an upload before it dies. I've changed that from 10MB to 50MB. Maybe that will help?

Re: Kat Klub
It took me quite a while to figure out exactly what I was looking at!! I thought it was some kind of weird, strange stuffed animal! The end of her paw (without me knowing was her leg & paw) looked like a strange creature's head! This creature that had quite the thin body!

Re: Kat Klub
Tried uploading just ONE 8.8 MB picture but ended with same error message. Will try again some day when I can reduce their sizes.Xan wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 2:48 pm There isn't too much reason to upload an enormously high resolution picture here, but there currently isn't a board limit.

Re: Kat Klub
Okay, I found another limit and lifted it. Everything you've tried should succeed next time!

Re: Kat Klub
Thanks! I really did not want to press you as I now know cats are not your favorite things so there was no personal benefit to you to be expending any of your time in trying to come up with a solution.
I will now try again!
Thanks again!

Well hey, this forum isn't about me, so the content doesn't matter. It should be easy for people to do what they want to do, which is the point of enabling attachments in the first place. So thanks for pointing out things were unnecessarily constrained.

Re: Kat Klub
Since I have 19 total pets I thought I'd split this up into three posts....
First up are the rats!

Re: Kat Klub
I know that. But you could have said. I hate cats. Or, dislike cats. There are tons of other ways I can spend my time rather than finding a way for one person to show pictures of cats!Xan wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 8:56 pmWell hey, this forum isn't about me, so the content doesn't matter.

But you didn't. And, I deeply appreciate that.
Plus, I love how easy it is to add the pictures and get them in the desired order in the post.
Thanks again!

Re: Kat Klub
Vinny, have your cats ever tried to get to the rats or gerbils, or are they just curious to look?

Re: Kat Klub
All my cats are always EXTREMELY interested in the gerbils.
When I brought home my office gerbil last Tuesday and put it in my other bedroom because its home was not cat proof like the three other three gerbil homes all three cats were immediately in the bedroom, like a vacuum, all over the gerbil's home. I yelled at all of them to get out, physically sent each one of them out, and the door to that bedroom has been kept shut.
They are constantly expressing interest in the other three gerbils' homes but they are all well secure and catproof.
The curious thing is that while the cats are pawing at the glass of the gerbil homes the gerbils seem to be completely unaware that a cat is just on the other side of the glass.
Rats are a different story.
They are much, much larger than the gerbils.
The cats sometimes have gone up to the rats home and, when they do, the rats run up to their wire walls and the cats jump back. I think the cats must recognize that though they'd love to kill and eat a gerbil, the rats are a whole other order of magnitude.
I'm actually more afraid of the cats getting too close to the rats home, heaving their tails within reach of a rat, and a rat biting it. But I've never seen anything like that come even close to happening.
I hand feed all the rats and I got bit once (by accident) drawing blood when it bit on my finger thinking it was a piece of food.

Re: Kat Klub
Rats were another scourge to be endured. They feasted on corpses and carcasses in the trenches and in no-man's land until, some said, they were as big as cats and twice as bold. Men shot them, bayoneted them, poisoned them, and beat them with clubs but in the long run to no avail. They multiplied like, well, rats. One story, perhaps apocryphal, is told of the soldier who found a cat in Ypres and brought it to his trench hoping it would get rid of the rats. Next day the cat was gone; only its tail remained, sticking out of a rat hole.vnatale wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 6:56 am Rats are a different story.

Re: Kat Klub
I was a member of a natural foods cooperative. At night the cockroaches would take over the place. At a board meeting we were told that a gecko eats them. So we obtained one. We later fund it dead. Since then I've always told everyone that we bought the gecko and then the cockroaches assassinated it!Kriegsspiel wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 7:35 amRats were another scourge to be endured.

Re: Kat Klub
I was wondering who you were directing it to.
Now I see it must be Smith1776.
It looks like it has an 80GB hard drive. So I'm guessing it is definitely a Pentium and was purchased around 2010 or so.

You ALSO have a classic black cat! I love black cats. Seeing your black one from behind could fool me thinking it is one of my two black ones.
