    I'm in a time-urgent dilemma that requires someone tech-savvy in taking photos and posting them somewhere easily accessible....all of which I have precious little experience doing.  Like none.  It is urgently important for me to get this done in preparation for the WRE TrailO Event on Sunday, Aug 20 that DVOA has partnered with. I need to show (not just tell) event organizers (all of them living out of town) what the park is like on rainless summer weekends. So I could use some serious help.

    Ideal would be to find someone willing to visit FDR with me on a sunny weekend afternoon (e.g. this weekend?), then post them on a photo site. 
    Next best would be to find someone willing to hold my hand and patiently walk me through downloading photos on my simple little cell phone onto a site.
    I am in desparate need of help from someone that finds this task very easy to do. 

    Please email me at bburg at comcast dot net. I would post my cell for texting, but I've heard that's not a good idea.Surprised

    Are we talking a flip phone? Can you/do you know how to attach photos to a text?

    If you can take them and text them to me, I can upload them for you.

    Thank you so much for your offer, Julie. My phone isn't THAT ancient, only it's ownerLaughing.  I can take the photos, find the gallery, but my latest phone upgrade has made it far more complicated to attach a set of photos to a text which my previous simpler phone did rather easily.

    I'll be going to FDR on Saturday to take as many photos as needed to show both auto and picnic site weekend traffic in the most challenging portions of the TrailO course. Could easily amount to 25-35 photos which I suppose I could chunk down into smaller portions if need be. If likewise, you would prefer not to broadcast your cell phone on the e-board, send it to me using the email I included.

    I've happily seen many of your photos of events, so I hope you are the godsend I've needed.  As I've heard, "A photo is worth a thousand words."  And who wants 25 to 35 thousand words in text or email, or for that matter, even in a conversation??!!!
