Don’t worry about it, welcome to the community, just don’t post huge images unless they warrant it (99% of the images in our formal reviews are only 1024 pixels wide, despite coming from 20-42 megapixel sources, mine included).

Relax, @boneburglar. We all friendly here. I just posted a high res image too - because @Torq needed to see details on a board to help me troubleshoot. (Result, probable trash heap).
This forum gets read on all kinds of devices. I frequently click to get the highest res on photos. The software it runs on does not automatically re-res your photos. Some fora (forums) do. So a hi-res image can be slow or take up somebody’s not unlimited celluar data.
I’m an old fart (phart?) that usually posts on a computer. That means I can snag an image at screen res and post it. If you are one of those whippersnap… youngsters that uses a mobile device, you have to think how to downsize the image before you upload it.
Nobody - certainly not @Torq or anybody else wants to discourage you from posting or uploading photos. To paraphrase Tolkien - All that is quicksand does not suck, nor all that is doo-doo stinks.
Image res is one of those unwritten guidelines. Hopefully, we have few of them.
We want this to be a friendly place.
Except for those #%&!&**% idiots that think you need to stick audio stuff IN your ears, and not OVER them like G-D intended.

I’m thinking of starting a “Drunk-Fi” topic lol I was having a hell of a time deciding on what to drink tonight with this pair…
I went with Kaniche Perfeccion rum with one ice cube… delicious
Edit first pic was massive…Photoshop Express collage on my pixel 3XL isn’t the easiest for resizing had to trial and error it…now back to my music and booze
Ending with the High West BouRye for some sweetness from the bourbon (bou) and some bite/spice from the rye (rye) get it Bou-Rye …

This is a wide ranging and tasteful selection. Well done, sir. My collection is much more mono-chromatic (Ardbeg Green).
If you like rum, consider tracking down a down a bottle of Four Square (I like Empery), or one of the Kill Devil single casks.

New Bon Iver and a blind tasting thought the Elements of Islay tasting kit last night. The Ardbeg was the standout, but the Caol Ila was a steal for the money.

The Ron Zacapa is one fine rum.

Fun read on whiskey, I kinda want to frame the last image of the slices of the different whiskies, they provide a cool poster image for download. Or make it my desktop wall paper.
The poster I mention: https://gfm.aps.org/meetings/dfd-2018/5b5f9a83b8ac31610362efd8
While I don’t want to denigrate the American product, I strongly prefer to examine droplets from the former study (Glenlivet, UK), evaporate as I work on evaporation of the main content of the supply.

Sipping a bit of Copper and Kings American Brandy. Similar to Cognac, but more bite.

When chilling at home with music I like wine, a nice Malbec is my go to now. But when the weather is warm I enjoy home-made sangria (red or white).

My dad used to make killer Sangria…and what he called Sangria Coolers, essentially he just added Sprite or 7up to the mix lol…but damn if it wasn’t tasty!

A man after my own heart. I do the same. Mendoza Malbecs - I lived in Mendoza for a year when I was about 14. And Sangria- I add some Chambord, sometimes Triple Sec or equivalent, and Vodka in addition to diet Sprite and fruit.

Definitely Coffee is No.1 and Red Wine would be No.2.
I do some things a bit different with my Coffee. I’m a French press guy and I add Raw Cacao powder to the coffee. Gives me a great liftoff and I’m ready to explore sonic goodness.
