Excellent shot, Tommie, and looking very smart.
I'd agree with using Photobucket for hosting pics which you will want to link to fora.

Well, heck. I get that box with a red X thing for some reason. I see that you posted the photo as an http: file. Can you try it with IMG or something?

(I wish I could figure that red X thing out, mutter, mutter, mutter . . . .)

seriously:

forum -i n. [an open square , marketplace]; 'forum bovarium', or 'boarium', [the cattle-market]; 'forum holitorium', [the vegetable-market]; 'forum piscarium', or 'piscatorium', [fish-market]; in gen., [a place of public business], commercial, political and judicial, esp. in Rome. Transf., of the business transacted in a forum; 'forum agere', [to hold an assize]; 'forum attingere', [to apply oneself to public business].

...so if the word was associated with the cattle market, it's proof that you'll find a lot of b*llsh*t on forums!

...and I seem to recall forum porcorum from some reading in sophomore year....pig market!
