I mentioned to Bryan that there seems to be no real pattern to what's going on. He said, "If the issue is with photos hosted elsewhere there’s probably nothing we can do about it unfortunately- that would likely be a server/sharing issue with the host site."
That would make sense if the problem were consistent. Change in my pic's hosting site (google) would seemingly cause all pics to have the same problem, if the problem were the host site. But his is not true. Some pics do appear just fine. Nor does that seem to explain why some see them with one device and later not (always on another device?), and vice versa. Had the two from some other site worked and mine didn't, that would make sense. I don't blame him for not knowing for sure. I understand he just has to go on what he sees and is probable.
Another from my cloud site...

Worked here. It's Pelham Blue, right?I am testing out the copy/paste method of posting pics. What do you know? It worked! Not my bass by the way.

Yes, a '62. Body was a refin. The only way it would be affordable. Finish is worn off the back of the neck and feels fantastic.Your bass?
I don't see it.

No issue.Just a test. Obviously not mine. Bryan (Mod) was asking.

Mopar was just as big at my high school as Ford or Chevy. No Ford or Chevy could beat a stock 426 Hemi or a stock 440.
Part of the reason I liked Chryslers was virtually everybody had a Ford or Chevy. Hotrodders to grandmas had Novas!
If I’m posting a pic from the net, I always download into my photos folder first (I have a lot of Nikki pics in my photos folder). Then I use the upload feature on talk bass. Have never had an issue that way.I mentioned to Bryan that there seems to be no real pattern to what's going on.

Thanks. When I have both at the same house again, I’m going to get a better shot. My son has an iPhone 13 Pro that takes the best photos since my days of using my Minolta SLR and Kodachrome. But I’m not Jeff…awesome avatar.
Thanks. They did do a great lacquer job on it. Tinted it nicely as well.I somehow knew this J is the real deal.
Nice refin too.
My cousin had a 68 Chrysler New Yorker like below, but dark green and a dark vinyl top. It had a 440 in it w/a 4 bbl Holley, not Carter, I believe, and positraction rear end. On the weekends he would often go take people's money or embarrass hot shots. Pull up to a red light in a car like that next to some hot rod with an overinflated ego behind the wheel and it's totally embarrassing to get blown away by a huge mom and pop looking car. He used to tape a $10 bill to the dash and if you could reach up and grab it when he took off you cold keep it. Never happened. A friend of his was a county policeman and they raced on a barely used part of an expressway late one night. His friend in the police car said he gave up once they got over 140 miles an hour and my cus was puling away. I assume this story to be true.Mopar was just as big at my high school as Ford or Chevy. No Ford or Chevy could beat a stock 426 Hemi or a stock 440.
