It's a classic!

Inadequate wall bracket, extra attempted fixing onto the bargeboard, two
masts joined using a bit of tube and two exhaust clamps, guy wires fixed
to thin metal strips screwed to the wall. It's a classic!

Its probably DIY, and one often has to admire the way people use things that
originally were doing something else.
However if its a paid for job, then no way from the sounds of it.

I have a hose clamp around one of my vacuum cleaner swivels tools as
otherwise the plastic engineering bends and it falls off every time you bump
a skirting board.

What happened to the two FM cables when they got inside?

Fifteen megapixels? Silly auld ****er.
There's a perfectly adequate size reducer available to you if you can
be arsed to learn how to use it.

I think you'll find that's a "no". ;-)

As it happens I am expert in the manipulation of bitmaps. 'A perfectly
adequate size reducer'? That sounds like something you found on a CD
glued to the front of a ten-year old PC Adviser mag.
To prove that I know how to reduce the size and resolution of a bitmap
look at this one, which is 23k:

But he has a point Bill. It's just lazy and inconsiderate to upload photos
from a modern digital camera without resizing. Not everyone has a fast
broadband connection.

You should use GIF or PNG for that sort of thing, not JPG.

Well, nobody says you have to look at them. Why compromise the quality
for those who can? Sounds like 'dumbing down' to me and there's too much
of that already.
