    What sawmill is this?

    So every other day or so I end up posting a photo up on the Facebook page for folks to look at. I went into the gallery here and found a historical photo of a sawmill. The Library of Congress caption doesn't go into any detail about where the image was taken - it just says "Old sawmill, pine...

    I got a paypal donation last night from someone. I tried to email back a thank you, but the rr.com email address that was used doesn't seem to work. So, whomever it was, a BIG thanks!! :)

    Upcoming Outage: Site Maintenance

    I saw the same problem from my desk. But I checked from home (remotely) and it was fine. I'm not sure what the issue is.

    NJPineBarrens.com 10th Anniversary

    Hi everyone, On July 13, 2002 I went and registered the domain name njpinebarrens.com. A few days later I had a website and discussion forum up and running. Ten years later the website and forums are still around and are, arguably, one of the best resources on the internet for folks interested...

    my photo gallery

    Probably not. Edit: Just went through the database and the file system. You had a gallery here two different softwares ago. I guess somehow your stuff didn't make it through the conversions. Sorry.

    my photo gallery

    I don't know why it's not showing up in the gallery. The software is a piece of crap. I've been not so subtly suggesting to folks to not upload to the gallery here anymore.

    An annoyingly big 1872 nap of Atlantic County

    Just downloaded this. Sitting on a very fat pipe to the internet (here at Princeton) I was getting about 600K/s. That's a lot slower than what I might expect to be able to download this file at. It took me a little over a minute to download it. My best advice is: be patient. The resulting file...

    Upcoming Outage: Site Maintenance

    I haven't been making changes. I self host the webserver and my own DNS on a virtual private server. The site is too big to run on shared hosting. The next time you see a DNS error shoot me an email. Maybe send me the output of a dig or nslookup as well. bruset@njpinebarrens.com

    Upcoming Outage: Site Maintenance

    If the folks that wrote the forum software came out with a good gallery program, I'd probably pay for it and switch to it. The problems are: a) Most gallery software is absolutely horrible and full of security holes. b) Most gallery software is not user-friendly. c) The URLs to the images will...

    Old Mine Road open

    Mark, One of these days we'll have to make a trip up there together. I was there last winter and found the road closed at Kuhn Rd. I also had one of my scariest exploring moments scrambling down a very steep ravine to get some pictures by a river. I wasn't so sure how I'd get back up.

    Upcoming Outage: Site Maintenance

    The cookies aren't shared between the forums the the gallery anymore. You'll need to sign in separately. I really suggest people not use the Gallery here anymore. The software is ancient, I don't pay for support on it anymore, and there's much better alternatives (like Flickr) out there. Or...

    NJPB Facebook Page

    That was a digital photo, converted to black and white. You can, though, still buy film. One of my good friends still even develops his own.

    New Forum Software

    I think it automatically resizes images encapsulated in IMG tags.

    The latest one (the sawmill) is mine. The others have been coming from the Library of Congress.

    Looking for ORIGINAL (Legacy) South Jersey Magazine(s)

    I could do it. However, posting them online would be problematic as I am sure they're still in copyright.
