Testing a photo link. Bear with me, please...

**Mike Irwin** · June 6, 2000, 03:51 PM

I tried this a couple weeks ago, and it crashed and burned. Let's see how high the flames are this time. (G!)

**Mike Irwin** · June 6, 2000, 03:53 PM

Well, the flames aren't TOO high. It works, sort of...

You have to right click on where the photoimage is supposed to be, and then click "view image."

You'll see a picture of my favorite Ruger...

Shok · June 6, 2000, 03:55 PM

Did this work?

Shok

**Mike Irwin** · June 6, 2000, 03:58 PM

DAMMIT! How did you do that???

I've been cracking my skull on my desktop trying to get it to link properly! What did I do wrong?

Shok · June 6, 2000, 04:11 PM

You were one click away!

Go to the bad link and right click it select "view picture". It takes you to a webpage with your photo. Right click AGAIN select "view picture" you are now looking at the picture only (has jpg extension). Copy and paste url. >http://ic.yimg.com/c/3d508886/h/e416110e/rugerpix.jpg<

I like your dog. If I had a dog I'd name him ruger too.

Shok

**Mike Irwin** · June 6, 2000, 04:18 PM

Shok,

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I've been going nuts trying to figure this out!

As for Ruger, she's a girl.

She named herself. She was "arrested" at about 6 months of age when her owners were caught with a gun in Washington DC.

I was along for the ride with my friend, a cop. As the only civilian, I was asked to hold the dog. When I went over to the car, she was lying on the back seat with the muzzle of a gun pointing out from between her paws.

Yep, it was a Ruger Blackhawk revolver.

I knew at that moment I had to try to adopt her.

Best, most intelligent dog I've ever had.

**Mike Irwin** · June 6, 2000, 05:16 PM

Hey SHOK!

It crashed and burned???

I now get "Access Forbidden From External Hosts."

??? What does that mean?

Jim V · June 6, 2000, 06:38 PM

Guys, I get nothing in Shok's or by right clicking the icon and clicking on "show picture". Dadgum dog nappers.

I don't see a bear. Thought it was suppose to be a picture of a dog. Besides why would anyone want to have a shot snapped with a Ursa Major? Way too dangerous...

Ohh. "bear". b.e.a.r. Thank goodness.

At first I thought you said "bare" and was afraid Gunslinger was wearing that danged hat again.

Whew!

CindyH · June 8, 2000, 03:28 PM

Where are the pictures???

(the doggie pictures, not gunslinger's hat picture!

)

If you're good and stay quiet, we'll stop at the Dairy Queen on the way home.

foxfire · June 9, 2000, 07:13 PM

Did someone say Dairy Queen?
I'll have the big double-dipped cone.
Yeah, you know, the one right behind the bear; you know--the one in the picture.
