Aha! This has been a day of discovery for me.
Last night I tried posting the yard deflection data by formatting it in the forum "Reply" window. It looked fine until I previewed it... I mean the data was there but the formatting wasn't.
I don't have Excel on the Mac but I did prepare a Google spreadsheet with the data. But copying and pasting into a post did not work - the formatting was lost in the pasting. A couple of guys on the forum suggested creating the table and saving it as a PDF. While I knew I could read PDFs I didn't realize I could save documents in the PDF format. A little more exploring and, ta-da, I figured that out (really, really simple - I should have looked harder).
The other night I wanted to include a photo with my blog post but Flickr wouldn't do it and indicated I had to reset something or other. But tonight I tried posting a photo to the blog to see what needed resetting - and the photo posted.
So, today I learned a couple of things that ought to help me share thoughts and ideas.
And, here is the photo that would not load last night - My 3 Spars.
