3rd stringer steppin' up

Since @hapster got benched playing cards tonight, I figured somebody better come off the bench or should I say the practice squad to give you some Friday night pics. Fire pic not so great. Kinda like a rookie quarterback stepping in for the first time. All the others should satisfy you until @hapster‌ does his next cook. Lol.

    Thanks @cazzy I'm having a heck of a time loading pics since downloading iOS 8. It took almost 2 hours to load these and they're coming out small. Is this iOS 8, Vanilla, or me? I had to email them from my iPad and then send from a laptop. What gives?

    iOS 8 is not working great on the forum right now with pics. Try chrome and see if you have better luck.

    What phone did you use for the pics?

    @cazzy, I used the iPhone 5 I've been using. Idk what the deal is. I noticed Apple's already released an update for the iOS 8. I'll download it tonight and see if it makes a difference. One of these days I'll learn to be patient and wait until all the bugs are worked out before upgrading. I think I'll wait on the iPhone 6 'til all the problems surface.

    Are you locking in your focus by tapping your screen on the focal point?

    Sometimes I lock it. I get lucky every now and again on fire pictures. Most of the pics tonight had issues due to smoke. I'm not so worried about the picture quality. The pics look like they usually do on my phone, it's just trying to upload them onto the site. It's almost impossible and the pictures don't come out big on my iPad or computer when viewing them on the forum like they usually do. They look like thumbnails.

    Just upgraded to the iOS 8.0.2 and am posting to see if the upgrade fixed the issue. Pictures are the same as above. Using the same pics to see if it was indeed iOS 8.imageimageimageimageimage

    Now the thumbnails won't delete. This is crazy, I so hijacked my own thread. What originally started about sharing my dinner has turned into iFrustration.

    FWIW, I stopped being able to delete thumbnails from my posts a couple of weeks ago and now get errors when I try. I'm still on iOS 6 something.

    Don't fret, the food porn you posted is looking quite tasty and that's all that should really matter.  Very nice...

    That's pretty weird, the second set of pics look way better. 8.0 must have really sucked.

    Way to step up and knock it outta the park. This meal looks fantastic from the main course to all the sides. Nice job.

    I'm sure there'll be many more bugs that need to be worked out. One good thing, Apple is good at fixing it's problems. I was a droid user but converted because my family all had iStuff and my camera on my Droid Bionic sucked. The thing I miss most about Android is the ability to enlarge the text and wrap the text. Why does Apple think people want to read small text or scroll the screen around if you blow up the print. Pure sillyness.

    Thanks for stepping up :)

    You are hardly a rookie and the meal looks great. I am updating to the new ios8.0.2 as well right now...

    Poker was fun; even though I was down a few quid... It was good to see some guys I haven't seen in a few months

    Pics and grub look great.  The first set are likely small because you emailed them.  The iPhone compresses pics when you send in email (assuming iPad does as well).  


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Thanks. I forgot all about the email compressing the pics. Seems like the 8.0.2 fixed the problem for now.
