RV storage, if you have the room

They are building this at my local High School. The shipping containers are on treated timbers.
Made me think of Born Free storage if done on a smaller scale.
Wonder how much less cost is versus a framed wooden wall and concrete? If any?
Thanks.

Steve. I do know that I should not stick a knife blade into an electrical wall outlet, but I do not know how to resend your picture of a potential storage area to my son-in-law. I right clicked on it and did not see an option. As I have noticed in the past that you come up with some interesting pictures from various sources, I was hoping you could give me a brief tutorial.
Thanks in advance
Jim

Hi Jim, not sure I can help you. I have an Apple laptop. Bill H. taught me how easy it was to copy and post a picture.
And I kinda go wild with the pics, cuz its so easy. :lol:

Assuming you have a Windows computer, I know they have Photobucket. Other than that, thats about all I know.
Maybe someone else can chime in and help?

If you send me your son in law email via a PM, I can send him the pic.

Jim,

If you have an Apple computer, then place your cursor over Steve's photo and hold down your Control key and click your mouse. You should get a choice such as Save Image As, click on that and then save the photo to your desktop. That is how I download and save other people's photos all the time.

Should be something similar you can do if you have a Windows computer. Let me know if this works for you.

I am late to the Apple world, but if you're using Sierra, tap the pad with two fingers with the cursor over the photo, it brings up the "right click" menu... and use which ever command suits your fancy from there. In this case I used "copy image address" and then in the Forums software 'reply' function, use the Img command, and insert the URL between the Img tags. And this is what you get:

Steve,

That method just makes a screen copy of the original photo which may or may not result in a copy with the original pixel detail count. The method I listed in my earlier reply post downloads and saves the originally posted photo.

Roger's method in his post above also downloads and saves the original photo.

Thanks Bill, Steve, and Roger. I performed an operation, by accident, similar to what Bill suggested. I was pressing some keys and a window popped up on my windows computer that told me to press the "windows" key and the Prt Sc key. Then after I got the shot press the windows key and E key witch gave me options on what to do with it. The only problem (so far) is the saved shot, which is exactly like Steve's, has been cropped in the email to my son-in-law (does not show both containers on the side. However; The actual shot saved is full sized. I will play with it some more and send copies to another email address I have until I get it right.
Thanks again fellows
Jim

Just remember that taking a screen shot of an original high resolution photo will result in the copied photo having less resolution. I just did a test on a photo that I had that had a resolution of 2160 × 1440 pixels. When I did a screen shot of that original photo, the copied photo had a reduced resolution of 894 × 597 pixels. Just so you know the potential difference.

Screen shots of low resolution photos don't suffer this loss of resolution.
