Rod, thanks. Yeah, it sucks but it was also inevitable. I would start a thread for it, but don't use any picture hosting websites anymore, so the thread would be kind of lack luster. I'm already in contact with Drew Hay who can install the new stand pipe, and Scott who may help transfer some of these fish to my main pond.
No need for a hosting service. I post pics, less than 2mg, on the site with no hosting service. You can attach or attach and embed if you like the larger pics in the body of the message.
For easy resizing I send my pics to a friend on facebook - facebook automatically resizes them and then I post them.
