Dolli I know the effort you put into reposting photos week to week. And bless you for it. But this does make it almost impossible to get to the actual thread and current posts.
Questions to all my fellow deplorables: 1) Do we need to have a weekly thread? Can't we just let it go ... with maybe a reminder post once in a while to members with ONE photo? 2) Do we really need to repost photos? It's really becoming very difficult to get through.
I'm not trying to be difficult guys, just trying to find a way to make accessing this wonderful thread easier.
*Hugs*

1-I LOVE the daily thread.
2-The rest of Free Republic is open.......from an ADDICTED DEPLORABLE.
I LOVE the weekly threads, the pings in between and all of the great header and ping pics.
My 2¢
(Which won’t even buy a cup of lysie’s great covfefe :)
The pictures are wonderful and I enjoy them. Many are pictures I wouldn’t normally see. When I get on the thread throughout the week, it only takes a few seconds to scroll past the pictures if I don’t want to view them again. I guess if people don’t appreciate pictures they can start their own thread.
Ladies.. I have removed you both from the ping list.. and you can find us easily with keywords etc.
Anyone else?
Pax and I try to keep ping pix at a minimum. At this point we do a daily ping. We are both up to modify this if everyone wants to maybe go to a Sunday posting and Tues and Thurs Ping for example. NO dictatorship here! LOL
Ray had HUGE pings with sometimes 30 pix and we did have dozens of people leave the thread for that reason. He worked very hard for us with pix and news postings and we miss him but for many the large pings were problematic
Currently here on the Dose —The opening post and new thread is to be a recap of the prior week. I use your info and pix for the most part.. sometimes I hunt around elsewhere. This too is open for modification if the majority want change.
Sometimes the best pix are AP, Reuters etc. This morning I had thread ready to post in the preview box and HORRORS there were 8 pix from either AP or Reuthers... So another half hour of modifying the HTML to not get thread pulled for being naughty. NOT fun in 90 degree temps in the van in front of library
So this week with all going on had a lot of activity and pix. Some weeks I am hurting with very few things occurring and very few pix.. those threads are much smaller
Just back at wifi briefly.. ordered my Mediteranium sub from Dominoes..
