My Pictures!

[Carpoholic]

It seems i have upset a few people with my pictures again. Could someone tell me what the problem is with putting up 11 photos up in one night? They are of various fishing methods and not just carp! Some of them were even requested by other members. If you don't like my pictures, then dont look at them! I have been trying to cover all aspects of fishing with the latest pics, in an attempt to please everyone and by what i have read in the comments, the majority of the guys like them. So come guys, what's wrong with "11 assorted Photos"?? Its not as if they are totally crap. Is it because im English? Is it because you are jealous? Is it because i have never caught a 10lb pike? Is it because you are "Anti-Carp"?? Why, please tell me?? Kind Regards. Chris.:rolleyes:

[Carpoholic]

Why don't you lot have a "Vote" on it and If you think "11 various photos" is too many, say YES!. If not, say NO!!

IF 11 different members had all put a photo up each in one evening, Would that be too many????? You do boast the "BIGGEST SWEDISH PHOTO ALBUM" at Fiskesnack, but sometimes i ask myself, HOW??

[korten]

jag tror det är det svenska begreppet avundsjuka.. att dom som klagar inte har lyckats med att fånga det som du fångar på dina bilder eller att dom itne har lika fina grejer. personligen så gillar jag dom nya bilderna! riktigt fina!

Hi Chris!
I was one of those who reacted last time you posted your pics. It was just too much at the same time. Other people's pics "disappeared" in the flood of pics that time.

This time however I cant' see anything wrong. I really enjoy many of your photos. Like you said, you have been trying to cover all aspects of fishing with the latest pics!!

I cant' see anything wrong with posting 11 photos either. You are new to the forum but you are obviously not new when it comes to fishing, of course you have a lot of photos that you want to share with the rest of us!

Hopefully the last thread about your photos will be removed soon. :)

But for god's sake, you have to catch a 10 lb pike immediately, that's just embarrasing! ;)

[Carpoholic]

The question is : HOW MANY IS TOO MANY!???????

[Carpoholic]

SUPERTRESS: Thanks mate, i love to share my pics and all but a couple are of Sweden and Swedish fishing. A big part of my fishing includes photograpy as you can probably tell :-)
As for the pike, thats my goal this weekend down at Viskan PIKETASTIC mate :-) Other peoples pics don't dissapear, they can still be seen mate with just one click on the mouse ;-)
Right i have to go back to work now, i came home on my lunch to write this thread ;-) (As bad news travells fast ;-)

Some dogs need a tree. It happend to be You this time Carpoholic.
I'm not too keen on pics but some seem to bother a bit more than me. My opinion is, have you seen 5 pike pics, 5 perch pics, 5 tench pics a.s.o. you should recognise the species darn well and from that point on a picture must have someting extra to catch your eye, to wake you up. Otherwise the picture is obsolete. That is my general opinion about the whole Fotoalbum and pictures i common.

Yet, I cann't see any reason to all that fuzz about your photos. What differs them from all other pics except that You are the very man to have brought them to sight an you did it all in flight instead of two or three a day? To me it does not matter who did or why. 1000 pictures more or less on carps, pikes or other species won't make the album speak anyway.

Now, if you want to tell a boring person to piss off the nice way, you pass him the family photo album. And I find a lot of similarities to the family pictures in the fotoalbum of FiskeSnack. No matter if the pics shows carps or trouts, pikes ore roaches, the very collection of pictures does not tell me a good fishing story, it just shows me an enormous bunch of exchangeable pics of good specimens, but all those beatiful fishes neigther make me dream nor do they teach me a new fishing method or technique. And that is why I am a seldom seen guest in the Fotoalbum.
But tell me the story behind each picture and You'll have my ear.

But Carpoholic! FiskeSnack expects You to do Your duty!
Keep on showing us Your best pics of Your best aspects of fishing! You are also welcome to write some storíes and facts about all Your good or bad fishingtimes. I would love to read them! :)

And still there ar a lot of misspelling I guess. (sigh)

[JerkMaster]

i think they are jealous!

[KG?]

Det finns nog inget bestämt antal för vad som blir för mycket, 3 kort efter varandra på samma eller snarlika fiskar kan vara för mycket. Även om samma användare postar 42 foton i rad så behöver det inte vara för mycket om korten är varierande och sevärda...Men jag gillar inte riktig att den tråden som startades idag stängdes. Även om frågan redan varit uppe så borde väl den tåla diskussion? Vad var det för speciellt med den som gjorde att frågan inte fick diskuteras mer?

[Kiwi(gäst)]

I ralt like your pictures!maybe they thnk that its to many at the same time?not that they are ugly or something like that!

Fish on!//Kiwi

Some people are just whining over everything. Nothing to care about.

[esobus]

Don't get daunted!

Although I am not a Carp specimenter(sp?) I do like the pics. The boille and tackle ones no less than the rest. To see what other enthusiasts do is very educative. More so if I can see the tools of the trade and not only the happy fisher and the catch. Which of course is fine to.

And no, can not I see why 11 pics should consitute a (any) problem. You guys just wait until I get my cam. Then it may be movies.. Not only pics.

Please keep them coming, many of them smell of much wanted summer and spring.

Don't ever let people upset you enough to affect your lunch! ;)

[ljohan]

I love your pictures!
But if I upload a picture and it disappears from the startpage of the picture archive because of your massive upload of other nice pictures I loose comments on mine. To get comments is one of the main reasons to upload pictures here.

Anyway, I don't really see this to be a serious problem and can't really understand why people have to argue about it.

[Quivertip]

Keep up the good work Chris we are behind you.

[CW]

Carpoholic - keep up the good work!

Have you ever heard about the famous Swedish expression "jante"? It is an expression explaining parts of the rather complex swedish mind, in general terms of course. It means something along the lines that "you shall not think that you are something...and if you do you are the lowest of the lowest". I think that your pictures has shown that some visitors to this site are more "jante" affected than they ever would admit. THese people are just pathetic, whining, poor sods and you should not take notice. However, if there are some technicial aspects to this end, server storage limitations for instance, that is something we all need to bear in mind when sharing pics. I do not know of any such limitations, though. Furthermore, if you want to become popular on this site - do not argue to much. Even a very well formulated opinon about a tiny issue could be considered "agreessive" and your submission might be deleted. In fact, I may have crossed the line with this post!

Please proceed upload your pics!

[Lazinko]

Mer karpbilder nu :) börjar bli sugen

[gretko]

Yeah Amy keep uploading :)

[Carpoholic]

Lads : I am totally gobsmacked that i have caused so much kuffuffle on this forum. But there is one thing that i would like to get across 1. I do NOT think that i am better than anyone else and that i am "Showing Off" with my pictures. that is such a far cry from the truth. My main aim is to share my pictures with you, as you have shared with me. I have been fishing for 29 years of my 34 year life to date and it means more to me than anything else in the world (apart from my 2 swedish children) I just want to share my experiences and if possible help those who would like to benefit from my experience. The young and beginners need to be helped along the way and those who don't are extremley selfish anglers. I am a guy who will go out of his way to help those who want to learn, it's not being big headed and i don't think i am above anyone else. Just because i have a lot of fishing tackle, it dosen't mean im better than YOU! Fishing is my life and i devote every spare minute to fishing, its not a hobby to me, its a way of life. I often think why i am such a fish-a-holic and i came up with this "Fishing is an addiction to the curiosity of the unknown" because we are all in this forum for one reason and one reason only. TO CATCH THAT FISH OF A LIFETIME, before we go to the big lake in the sky!!!! And remember "Failure is not an option!!!!" Warmest of regards to to all, Chris :-)

Vad blir dagens metod då?

[GuTe]

deadbaits med lite luft och doft ;)

[ljohan]

Där ser man.
Något du haft stor framfång med tidigare?

[GuTe]

yep, funkar alldeles utmärkt.

[Carpoholic]

Ska vi köpar en Gädda från feskekörkan och ta MYCKET bilder på den istället?? min snopp gillar inte svenska vinter!!! :-)

[Lazinko]

Feskekörkan :) märks ju att du bor i göteborg

[El Crapone]

hehe, =)heter den itne så?
så det är på detta viset alla dina fina fiskar kommit till? :P

[GuTe]

Mate, i've got a suprise for ya tomorrow, something that will piss a special person off really good :)

[Arnenym]

Carpoholic. Skönt du är är tillbaka och att det mesta verkar utrett!
Men vad betyder kuffuffle?

[Pagra]

Äh, alla bilder är bra bilder :>

[Max]

Jag håller med BeBest i denna fråga. Vad är det för vits med att ladda upp 5 nästan identiska bilder där det varierar 3 hg mellan varje gädda, till exempel? Vad vinner andra personer på att se dom bilderna? .. annat är om det kommer med en text eller en förklaring där man kan lära sig saker, då fyller det ett syfte med att utveckla andra personers kunskap om området. Och Carpoholic jag tror verkligen inte att du bara laddade upp dina bilder för att skryta, jag har själv inte sett dom.

[ljohan]

Carpoholic löste det galant med att göra ett collage istället.
Så, varför fortsätta att få sin åsikt hörd?
Lite som att debattera hurvida vi ska gå med i EU eller inte.

Känner mig träffad :oj:
