Hey, Cory, John, Robert, Chip,

How do you guys make the larger photos have a slider with an option then to click for full size?

They use the upload attachment function (just under the message when you write it)

As Olivier says that's how it's done. But I don't know how long the images are going to be archived, so I wouldn't recommend it. It's a little bit of work but if you want, you can create your own clickable photo link by creating a 2nd smaller picture in Photo Bucket and then linking to the larger like this:

Copy and save my formating and insert your own.

OK, sorry ... just LittlePigs pics, but had a tasting of Matcha from Zencha in this Hedgeapple Wan. Had to premix since it is a tad small. But the matcha looked so awesome with the almost tortoise shell interior (though the pic does not do it justice). Come to think of it, the exterior resembles an aged tortoise skin ... could be a name in here for this bowl?

Nice little bowl Chip!

Too much driving around the L.A. basin today and family process to do anything with photos :( .

Did manage to get a little matcha this morning tho (kaoru), followed by a bit of Organic Ooigawa supreme.

Hope everyone had a good tea day.

Merry Christmas everyone and to all who don't identify at all with Christmas - Happy day to you.
(sorry about the crappy photo - just couldn't fuss with all the hullabaloo).
Cheers.
:D

Ok, this isn't today's matcha...but I finally had time to download these.
This was part of a slowly sipped bowl of matcha (the foam was already gone!) enjoyed on a late summer day.

I'm warmed by just looking at these pictures today.

Mmmmm, matcha,

Today, some Wakamatsu mixed with Kaoru (ran out of Waka! :o , had to supplement with Kao).
The vessel is one of my sister-in-law's regular bowls that is just the right size (my travel chawan is just too small - I always slosh while whisking in it, unless I make an infinitely small portion, oh, 2oz :? ).
Cheers.

Seeker...every time I look in on this thread I must have matcha...I thought I was out, but found an unopened can in the frig..mmmm, matcha!

Chip, I love that hedge apple cup, I just imagine it must have such a wonderful feel in the hands!

Good eye, there Chip, that is a maple tree starring in my matcha picture!

Later,
