New guy here.

I've been over at the ssnakess forum for a little while and I am new here. I've been into keeping snakes and herping for a couple of years now and I'm looking into getting into Garters. This place seems like its full of great info and personalities, hope I can help add to the fun. I don't have much to add now so when I can I'll post a couple pics of a Ribbonsnake I caught a few weeks ago.

Thanks! Glad to be here. Is there a post minimum before you can post pictures? I didn't see that in the faq.

[guidofatherof5]

I believe 3 post gets you full access. Have you tried uploading any photos?

[travesty]

I have tried every time with no luck yet.

[guidofatherof5]

It maybe the size of the photo you're trying to upload. 2048kb/2.048mb size limit. jpg,jpeg,png,gif formats only. Zip files are also acceptable up to 5.2mb I convert all my photos to an email ready size, this makes uploading much quicker.

That was the first snake of the spring for me. I guess I was using the wrong copy paste code. I was doing bbcode instead of linked bbcode from imgur. Guess I'll have to experiment with the sizes too Steve. I actually caught 3 huge ribbons last weekend. and I have some other herping pics to add later.

Ribbons are awesome. Very temperamental though.

[travesty]

Yes and extremely stinky. One of them almost made me throw up the musk was so strong, I couldn't believe it.

Thamnophis perfume. Ever had it tail-whipped into your mouth? It's not good at all.
