Does Dropbox only work with a PC

Nope, works on Mac also. Just install it go to your Dropbox directory, right click on the image you want to share and you should be able to get a public URL from the contextual menu.

Hope that helps.

The 'My Media' option allows uploading of images, I would assume the 'Image' button within the WYSIWYG may also have that option and that it's just not enabled. It appears that the software used for the forum has a Gallery feature and may fill this need, unless the site owner is against hosting images on the server. 

Watching me, watching you...

What is the length of the socks? I have a Red Sea 170 that used 4" x 10" socks

Came across this and thought I would just share it for those who haven't seen it. Very cool use of video, too bad it's to show the world what devastation has and is happening to the reefs of the world. Hoping that communities and scientists can use the data to help turn this around.

Price too high? I did pay $400 for it when they were the latest model.

I have an MP40w ES (not the new quiet drive model) wave maker for sale, bought it a couple years ago for a 90 gallon setup I was working on and never got to use it. 

The pump is brand new, never been used, box still factory sealed.

I'm in Portland, asking $275.

Thanks for looking.

Those are really cool... too bad my tank is still cycling else I would take them right now 

Was going to stop by, but parking was non-existent and I spent all day putting together and setting up my new Red Sea 170 that I got from Jeff at Cuttle Fish. 

Thanks again Jeff and Robin!

Hey Kim,

I have a 48" light fixture with the double 250's, 4 T5's and moonlights. A 29 gal all glass and I think I still have a 30 gal sump and skimmer from a 90 I had.

I'm moving and need to find a new home for these items. Please let me know if those are things that could be used, otherwise I'll donate them elsewhere

Hey guys,

I have some equipment that may be good for TFT, just not sure who to talk to. Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm in Portland.

Thank you.

voted, good luck!

What are you looking to do?

I have an acrylic tank I could possibly lend you. Let me know

Will be there tomorrow... will be at beach for the weekend. Planning on checking it out

No kidding, I would pick one up for sure at that price! Been wanting a cube...

I think they discontinued those cubes, so finding a place with them in stock and at clearance prices might be difficult.

I see what you mean, you have great clarity on the fishes head, but the depth of field is so narrow that the tail is blurry. I personally don't use a macro lens, I put my camera on the macro setting and manually focus using a 28-135mm USM lens. For the camera, sure, a Canon 5D MarkII or even III is great if you're getting paid for your photos and can spend the extra money, but I don't believe you need a super expensive camera to take great photos. I personally have a Canon 60D and love it! I'm by no means a professional photographer, but have been in the hobby for over 20 years.

I'm guessing we're talking about different calibration techniques and or hardware/software... the one I used to use for print required me to click on and set a color palette of 140 or so little swatches each time I calibrated. That is what took forever, as I had to click and wait for the software to recognize the color, then move onto the next. Granted, that was a few years ago and the new stuff is probably easier and quicker.

On another note, if you're not using some kind of photo editing software already, I would recommend checking out Adobe Lightroom. Free trial here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroom

It allows you to change a lot of the parameters after taking the photo, and if your camer can take Raw files, I would suggest using those, as they have much more data to work with than the jpegs. Of course, you will probably want to try this after you get your monitor calibration figured out

Simply amazing! Clownfish are among my favorite

I have used different types of monitor calibrators and from my experience, they are very time consuming and have to be re-calibrated every few months. You have to calibrate the monitor to the printer...so, unless you have professional gear, it can be nearly impossible to accomplish. I was using a $2600 monitor (http://www.eizo.com/global/products/coloredge/cg241w/index.html#tab01) and a $5000 printer. The monitor has built-in hardware and the printer was loaded with the color profile to create a color sync.

Honestly, if you're not printing the artwork, there is no real need for color calibration as everyone that looks at your artwork will be seeing it differently as their monitor and settings will be different than yours. The calibration only works for you to 'accurately' see what something will look like prior to printing.

Oh really? I didn't know that. I have had that in since the beginning and haven't had to touch it. I would rather be safe then sorry though.

Thanks for the heads up.

I was at the Wet Spot one day and they told me about it... pretty recent recall.

I noticed your heater looks like a Marineland Stealth heater... they had a big recall on that line. They had a bunch of them fail and kill people's fish. I have a couple of them myself, but took them out of the tanks and got different ones. Even if yours is working well now, I would take it out to be safe. Better to spend another $20 on a new heater than lose a fish or your corals.

WOW! I just saw this thread for the first time.... amazing job! (clap)

If my house were only bigger. Very cool!

I can't believe that is 60 gallons, looks so compact.
