    800x600.

  10. What program are you using to resize your images Terry? They look good
    but whatever you are using to resize doesnt seem to be doing a very
    good job - they look a bit over sharpened. Cool shots nonetheless. If
    you dont have photoshop I recommend 'irfanview' (http://irfanview.com/)
    for resizing images, it does a really clean job.

  11. Lots of aliasing in the resized images.

    Probably used Paint, Stretch/Skew and change to like 30%.

    I PM'd you a gift Terry.

    I see you are diligently obeying the "keep off" sign by jumping right
    off of there. Nice shots, Terry.

    Haha well I would but it would have to have a downslope to rollout! I
    knew dropping to flat in the sand would be ok though. Again, it was
    just a rush to get the airtime; it literally felt like I was in slo-mo
    on the way down!:p As for the crazy MUni drops I've done plenty, but
    not 7 feet, although some have seemed that big lol!

    I know the feeling, even though it's only been less than a week for me.
    I've been going through some serious MUni withdrawl since all this rain
    activity started-and hasn't let up for a week now!

    And I'll still have to wait for at least a few days *after* the rain
    stops, until the trails get at mostly dried out. There's so much _clay_
    in the trails around here that when you try to ride when it's wet, the
    tire gets so clogged and caked with clay that you simply cannot ride.
    🙁

  19. Disgusting to be out in those conditions.

    In Canada we don't get clay, just mud deep enough that you just sink in
    it.

    At least in Ontario anyways, it's just too slippery and deep to ride
    through.

    Yeah my only real riding option is to take my 36er on the beach bike
    path. It's 48 miles round trip! A few days ago I went just 12 miles
    roundtrip; first 6 was great...thought I'd get back before the rain
    started again. But the last 6 coming back was met by showers and a 25
    mph headwind! Probably the best workout ride I've had in a long time!
    When your fighting that much wind force you quickly realize just how
    heavy and cumbersome a 36er can feel! Sure glad I had extra layers of
    clothing and ear muffs!
