    I think it’s an Imgur issue. I’m having the same problem here and AHQ. It stands out more here.

    Thank, I thought I was going out of my mind.

    My last post in my story thread was March 4. I'm excited to resume when we move to the new forum. In the meantime I've been posting a sentence or two along with a pic or two in various pack discussion threads or the pic threads.

    My last post my March 1st. I do need time to think about just where Erik is headed. I started the Early Years to give me something to do in the meantime. I'm afraid I really don't have side games.

    Before going to jungle with Taru, I spent Sunday with Julia , She visited that prank fest after work (why such horrid outfit) , and had a chat with Geoffrey and Babs.

    @misty4m Its fun to see who gets with who though, had a few save where Kyle Kyleson got with Judith Ward 😆

    @GalacticGal Thanks 🙂
    Were the pictures cropped? I cropped a few when I only want a picture of pop up messages or moodlet descriptions, Imgur tends to stretch it while uploading and make it bigger

    @DaniRose2143 “help”😆 Glad to hear Nashville’s good with them ☺️ Yeah, Ranch life is not for Kyle 🥹

    @Ellupelluellu I love that they included rescues with Horse Ranch but honestly seeing she had aggressive trait makes me sad to think what happened to her that she got it. But its also cause of that I want to try to make things better for her ☺️
    The voodoo dolls😆 Two can play at the game Nancy

    @Caerfinon Very true words Ainsley 🙂

    @GalacticGal @DaniRose2143 @BlueSeaWaves You can get Imgur to resize the image from the menu in the all Images display

    J6Vfwv1.png

    Just select the size you want and it makes it a new url that maps to a smaller image.
    Cheers

    @Caerfinon Thank you so much, but it doesn't fix the issue. 😕 The picture is still huge and the quality is horrible.

    I have to manually resize my pics in Gimp before I upload. If I don't they fail to upload every time. I have to make them 1024x662 or smaller. I've tried several sizes smaller than that. They always fill the viewable window no matter how small I make them. That's been going on for two weeks now.

    I need to learn how to set up Gimp to resize multiple images with one click. Same for exporting. It's really slow going right now.

    @DaniRose2143 I checked the HTML elements for your post. It looks as though with the smaller sized imgur picture it is being stretched to fit the area on this page. This size of the image is 160x104 but it is being rendered at 929x604. This would account for the pixelation.

    The original sized picture size is 1024x662 and it is being rendered to 929 x 601. pixelation would not be as noticeable.

    Very odd.

    @Ellupelluellu, I find myself imagining that the fireworks are a direct result of the Landgraab Voodoo Battle.

    After what was essentially a one-night stand (story reasons) Xanthe now has a son, Theseus. Erytheia is also a mother, her own set of twin girls called Athena and Sophia. All three are currently infants and adorable little munchkins… let’s see how that all goes! I really need to sit my butt down and write some posts…

    But I also started yet another new save because I have no shame why not? The Murphys live in San Sequoia where I haven’t had a family yet. Conor is a wannabe comedian and Niamh is an outdoorsy type (as are many of my Sims) who is going to be into herbalism and being green. She’s pregnant with their first child, too.

    @Caerfinon That's a perfect mantra Ainsley.🙂

    @Ellupelluellu The fireworks were the perfect metaphor for the end of their marriage.😆

    @BlueSeaWaves Nashville tried to buck her. 🙂 Aurora's riding skill was lvl 4 the last time Peanut 'helped' her. She's mastered it now. Poor Nashville didn't stand a chance. 😛

    @Lucy_Henley It's nice having different fun saves for whatever mood you're in. 🙂

    I spent most of my day testing my game and redownloading mods from LittleMsSam. I haven't spent time with Alaina for a while. I used her save to test and see what little mods I needed.

    Alaina enjoyed a relaxing day at home. She went fishing so she could bake a treat for Lily.

    It wasn't a big catch. It was big enough for Lily though.

    Alaina's still working on her cooking skills.

    Lily didn't mind though.
    "Is watching you make dinner always going to be this much fun?!"

    Alaina went fishing again the following day. I was just randomly clicking every time I heard a fish jump. I didn't see this one until I started editing pictures. Wow! Good thing you can't go swimming in Willow Creek.😲

    I spent more time with Julia.

    She was making her first cande, all-knowing ( @luciusstorm , now i get it! why he called himself that to demarco!!) Knox had to read from do-it-yourself-guide and "teach" her... She finished the candle and left.

    Oh my.. and after noticing Julia, he came and made a speech about how great all this recycling and green life is!

    "Don't want to listen to him?" Jeb asked. "I have variety of paper bags for sale! 7 different designs... "
    Julia left home.

    @Ellupelluellu, I like Knox. I think I need to get my story back to Evergreen Habor at some point. (Too many ideas.)

    @BlueSeaWaves I always crop my pictures using Paint, then I do a Save As to make it a jpeg before I scoot them into imjur. This is the very first time this has happened to me, and I've been using imjur for I'm guessing the last two years. I even tried to use the editing in imjur and what I got was a horrible resolution. That's when I pulled that part of my post and tried all over again. I deleted the pictures from imjur and started all over again. I did this thrice, but then stopped. I'm not insane, at least not yet anyway. LOL It was completely frustrating. I really hope I don't have to go in search of yet another third party host.

    @Caerfinon. Thank you. I tried that; it came out all blurry. But thanks for the tip. :)

    @DaniRose2143 That's exactly what I ran into!

    I'm going to go out on a limb, here, to suggest it's more of this forum's problem. Maybe?

    I loved that cat! So adorable. Watching Alaina cook was fun, too. As for the fish, that reminded me of a Barracuda. They are vicious. Fun mini update.

    @Ellupelluellu
    Julie exhibits the patience of a saint. LOL I'm thinking Knox just can't help himself. He seems to be a true Believer in the Green Cause and that it's up to him to spread the word . . .

    @Caerfinon
    Love the Haiku. And of course, Bacon is always good no matter what time of day. LOL
