Norway checking in

[Chris68]

Hi all,
I'm an american who has lived in Norway for the last 10 years. Been into bushcraft for at least that long. I was initially attracted to bushcraft as a means to be less reliant upon modern backpacking gear. Since then, my intrest fueled by the likes of Ray Mears and Mors Kochanski, among others.

I'm still kind of new to all this forum stuff, and I'm hoping to find a forum with a minium of politics, religion, and end of times obesession. Is this it?

Also, any tips for making my pictures more avatar friendly? I can't seem to find a file small enough to be successfully uploaded to my profile. --Chris.

Hi Chris, and welcome. To answer some of the specific questions, religion and politics are officially taboo on this site, see the 'rules'. As to whether this is the site of your dreams, only time will tell.

There are numerous programs that can re-size images if that's what you mean about your avatar. There's a place on the forum (near the bottom of the main list) for asking about that sort of thing, post there and tell people what software you're using now (things like operating system, browser, any packages you've bought/borrowed/grabbed off the 'net) so that they can help you better.

This is a great forum to be a part of. Very little religion or end of world obsession. A little politics, but easy to avoid
