    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Does anyone have tips or tricks to get them to stay still? I've never been too great at taking photos of even still objects but here is Starlight, the wiggler.

Let me say first what a pretty girl!!

I love the fact that you took pics on a map! Really puts meaning to the phrase "all over the map", which is what I assume you were going for. :thumbsup: Very Nice!
 
Pretty! and the #1 rule for taking pics of animals... PATIENCE! :p It can be frustrating but it is the only way :) You might take 100 pictures before you get "the one" but it is always worth it when you do.
 
:D:D I got to see this girl in person :yesnod: She's STUNNING [/COLOR]:thumbsup:

Nick since she wont stay still in pics for you and it seems to be upsetting you, :rofl: :rofl: You could always send her my way I wont mind taking her off your hands ;)
 
:rofl: Thanks everyone!! She's definitely a quick one, lol.

Her and I have come a long way. She arrived really dehydrated, underfed and with an RI about two months ago. She has since completed treatment, healed and a healthy eater. I couldn't be more happier with my baby :)
