Hi Chris,

Nice and incredible tourmalines.

Please don´t write a new message for each new picture because you fill the Last posting box. Remember that you can attach up to 15 pictures in only one message. Also please read A general guide for using the Forum with some rules and tips.
Also I saw that your last pictures look small, please remember that you can download images at least at 750 pixels wide, because this size is the standard size for the images in FMF.

Thank you very much !

Hi,

And to complete the tip given above, if the pictures are larger, the server will resize them automatically.
