    No, I have enough trouble with computers without trying to jinx them. :eek:mg::embarassed::angel:

    Just kidding but on a serious note BNSFRailfan, the site that you called for that image from has requested that we not allow users to use their bandwidth to post photos on the forums. I edited your post to a link.

    Thanks,

    Charlie

    Not a problem Allan. You would not know that unless you saw a thread like this one.

    You may be better off shooting a BNSF diesel in action with a digital camera, uploading that image to your PC, then using it as a screensaver.

    That would also work for those who want to have a loco from their favorite RR- if they have the pic, or if a friend says it's OK to use his/her shot (be sure to give 'em credit if you do), then it's all good.

    No, I don't, but my shot from a trip to the Moffat Route last year at Tunnel 7 suffices:

    Yup like Hemi said, just shoot a digital photo and download it. I have my B&M engine on my home computer and the BNSF ES44 pic above on my work one. I even changed all my fonts on the computer to Zepher (looks like the CB&Q font) and color coded my window screens to Green & Orange ala BNSF themed desk top.

    The shot above was from my old Minolta 35mm SLR 5000 shot with Fugi 400 speed. I just had all the photos burned onto a disk rather than film and loaded up my RailImage album:teeth:

    I do plan on getting a Digital Camera of something like 6.0 to 7.0 MP's.
    But nothing less. The only problem is......There so darn pricey. The one I want will run me somthing like close to Three Hundred bucks. Allan.

    I'd use one if I can find one with a high enough resolution... I've used some of Hemi's photos, but no BNSF on 'em!

    You hadn't asked for Beansniff! I have plenty of 3MP shots of BNSF... Maybe tomorrow, I'll email you a couple choice shots...
