G'day Guys,

Welcome to the Speedo Forum.

If you are a guest, you can only see a small portion of the forum. Members like posting their speedo selfies so I don't like that to be 100% public. However, joining is free.

If you are a new member, you need to email me your username so I can manually activate your account. This is a pain (for you and me) but it is the only way I've been able to keep the spam bots from ruining the forum. My email address is: DaveEvans@SpeedoFetish.com

This forum is free and I don't allow any advertising (except my own sites), if you would like to donate please click the link above, all donations go towards the hosting and maintenance of the forum for everyone to enjoy.

Hello from Arizona

Post by BlakeAZ88 » Fri Apr 21, 2023 1:01 am

Hey. I’m Blake. Been here a while as a lurker but never really got around to posting until now. I’m 32, live in Phoenix and I’m an avid swimmer. I swim laps regularly to stay in shape and used to be on the swim and diving team in school. I prefer speedos for the freedom of movement and how quick they dry. Plus the just feel better. I prefer the plain dark colors like black or dark blue or some of the spliced designs with dark purple or maroon.

I want to post a picture for the forum but keep having trouble uploading or embedding my photo. Always getting an error message. Is there an easier way to add a photo?

Nice to have you on the forum, Blake!

Regarding pictures, I know that the size limit on the website is no more than 800 pixels wide, so maybe all you need to do is give some pictures a size adjustment.

Hey Blake. I recommend Irfanview software. Older, basic style interface--easy, once you get used to it. You can just specify the width as above.

Hey Blake! Good to have you on here!

I’m from Pennsylvania

I upload my pictures using the Tapatalk app. It will resize them automatically.

Hope that helps!

Hi Blake, Welcome! It's great to have other swimmers on here! I'm in the pool 2-3 times a week.

Regarding pic's, most pc's/Mac's have functions to downsize your pics without 3rd party resources. Good luck!
