Howdy! In case you don't remember me, my name's Peter. I used to be more active on Expedition Portal but now I just pop in once in a while I am in between good offroading vehicles (sold a Defender 110 last April). I have been substituting my overland thirst with other projects, mainly...

I'm throwing my Defender 110 previously listed here, up on eBay. Reserve is set at $27K, pretty low. I'm still offering to donate 18% of the proceeds as originally posted. This thread is where you can suggest charities. Onward!

After much debating and pondering, and then talking with my doctor, I'm heading to Peru. I was actually able to get tickets through Alaska Air with miles (only 35,000 to South America, wahoo!). Two hops and I'm there on Tuesday. I'm a bit excited. After talking with my doctor about various...

As some of you know I'm working on selling my Land Rover Defender 110. Noted in the ad is my offer to donate 18% of the sale price to charity. And this is where I'd like some help. I'd like help in picking charities to donate to. To this end I'm opening up to request from all of you. It's...

This isn't exactly a vehicle dependent expedition, but it will be undertaken with a SPOT device, so I thought I'd post it up and the moderators can remove it if they see fit. As some of you may or may not know, Kim and I are heading to Nepal for a 19 day trek through the Himalayas in the Khumbu...

It's time for me to part with the 110. My main reasons for selling, as I'm sure many will ask, is to continue in my current lifestyle which doesn't, at the moment, bring in a lot of cash. Plus I would like to do more international travel and the sale of this vehicle will help with that. It's...

Howdy, Earlier this week I launched a new site called Focus of the Day, offering daily feeds of 4x4 and National Park photos. An example of those feeds can be found here and here. So far the response has been GREAT!! Over 50 daily subscribers in about 4 days is better than I imagined (ok...

Introducing Focus of the Day, a new website dedicated to delivering top notch, engaging photographs to your emailbox or RSS/Atom feed reader every day. The site itself is pretty plain as the true strength lies in the daily feeds. The initial content are in two categories; US National Parks and...

Hi there, I've done some looking and can't quite find what I'm looking for. I'd like to include a mostly updated map on a blog. It can be on another page (meaning not the active blog page) but I'd also like to have a simple sidebar 125px wide image that can link to it from my main page...

For Trade, a Dagger Bayou day kayak. See pictures for condition. This kayak is in good condition, being used about a dozen times. Comes with a spray skirt and paddle. Kayak is located on Whidbey Island in Washington. Suggest your trade item. I'm looking for something that won't take up space...

Does anyone else with temps over 70 have a gooey mess where the velcro of the ratchet strap is? That velcro is held on with glue and mine has been dripping, getting on the ratchet and generally making a mess. Any cure for this?

I've got a corrupt compact flash card. It's happened before and I have a recovery tool but it doesn't see RAW files. These RAW files (Canon) are of my sister-in-law's wedding so I reeeeeaaally want to recover them. Does anyone have good experience with any particular recovery tool for Canon...

I'm looking for a USA based dealer/applicator of some kind of nice, strong window coating to help prevent breakins. I've seen what the guys at Lone Wolf Transglobal Expedition are using, but it can only be applied in the UK. Does anyong know of something like this in the USA that isn't too...

You might have already seen this, but if not.... Microsoft has a Photo Info tool out that adds a menu item when you right click on a photo. http://www.microsoft.com/wind... It's pretty handy for quick stuff and lets you add certain EXIF info, like title and description and keywords and such...

I don't normally look at many photo contests since they want complete control of your submitted images the moment you submit them. So this one caught my eye when I read through the rules....until I got to the "must be a college student" Hefty prizes but not a lot of them. You can only submit...

I've tried searching but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I'm trying to figure out a good filtering system to put in a Defender 110 with the rear seats removed. my requirements are: cleans any crud that might give me the crud when south of the border works with pressurized water...

Does anyone have a really good setup or workflow they'd like to share regarding digital panoramas? I'm starting to get into it more and up until now use the stitch thingy from Photoshop (found in ZElements, but can be used in regular CS). It works well enough. But they I made the mistake of...

Does anyone have some semi-permanent internal lighting setup for thier roof top tent that they'd like to share? I finally unboxed the Eezi-Awn yesterday to try it out (on the ground currently). I like how dark it can be and that there seem to be many places to attach a light of some kind. I'm...

Looking back through some photos I found I have a number of semi-goofy shots of people crawling under and on trucks out in the field. And thus a thread idea was started. Bonus points given if there are more than 5 people standing around watching the repair. No garage or driveway shots, but...
