    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....

Well my little girl is growing up!

Well Mendie bought me a new camera and tripod set-up today! So I snapped a couple of pictures. Actually I took alot of pictures! LOL! It is going to take me a little while to figure out my new toy. Anyway here are two of the best pics from today. They are of Blossom one of our holdbacks from 05'. She is 8 months old and 50 grams as of today. I can't wait to breed her. She should throw some really nice tangs. Also since I have your attention what % would you say her carrot is? I was thinking 15-20% but was just curious how close I was to what others would think. These were indoor pictures the first I used a flash the second I didn't so any comments on that would be great too.

very nice! i like the pic with the flash better. brings out her color more. im not good with carrot tail % guessing but i would agree with you.
 
I would agree with you, 15-20 percent before it breaks up :) Nice and very solid at the base of the tail however. She is gorgeous :)
 
Thanks everyone! I am glad to see I was on track with the % carrot it can be so debatable. She was a baldy until about a month ago, then she started developing those spots on her head. But she is one of favs none the less. I haven't had a chance to play with the new camera yet Nancy but trust me once I do I will be postings lots of pics. I am just so happy to have one again. I was so bummed out after the last one was stolen. This one is alot nicer though and does alot more so it's all for the best I guess. Anyway Thanks again for the comments!
