This warrants Rules being posted using two methods - Please Read!

This Gallery is for you to post your images of Spyderco knives (and other Spyderco products). Please read these rules prior to posting any image.

Please only post your own images. Please do not post images from others. Do NOT post copy written images unless you own the copyright.

The same rules apply to this forum as in other areas of the Spyderco.com Forums. Do not post anything offensive, vulgar, violent or otherwise questionable. Please be respectful to the members of our community and remember this is a knife forum.

If you have any questions about whether or not something should be posted, contact Tazkristi (Site Admin) BEFORE you post it.

Please keep text to a minimum, this forum is primarily for images not discussion.

Now, get out there and post your pictures! Enjoy!

Hope this is ok considering the "keep text to a minimum" rule, but since I haven't seen anyone say it, thanks for setting this up for us Kristi!

Edit: Just saw WhyNot's post in General Discussion, not the first then :o !

Hi Kristi, thanks for the new section. I think it's a very inspired idea to put a dedicated place for eye candy. :D
Show 'em, guys (and gals) ;)

Host them at some place like Imageshack.us instead.

I personally use http://imageshack.us and use the resize image options there.

I use Microsoft's Image Resizer Powertoy for Windows XP. It's a free download from the following link:

Irfanview is a photo program that you can use to resize pictures if you don't have the Windows program.

Google it and you can download it for free. It's fairly easy to use, too.

Anyone consider making specific threads dedicated to particular models of knives? :confused:

Like, a thread for Delica's, one for Endura's, one for Dodo's, one for Native's, One for Manix's, one for Military's, one for Calypso's, etc..

Could make a contest out of it aswell! ^_^ Picture of the year, hehe! It would be fun I think. :D

I want to post a pic of how I used and enjoyed using my Spyderco yesterday. Then I saw the numerous threads of Spydie galleries and got confused. I was wondering if there is one general gallery thread of Spyderco pics or thread of pics of how you used them? I don't like posting it in a specific model-thread. Personally I think that's just boring to see a thread full of the same Spydies. I like the surprise element of watching pics of different Spyderco models in one thread. Any suggestion? Can I start a thread 'What did you do with your Spyderco?' or something?

I use Paint.net or Fotosizer to alter the size of my photos. Fotosizer is a very simple free program that works very well and is very easy to use.

Hello, I've been gone awhile and have returned. I've noticed any pictures I post take some time to be approved and posted. Will that always be the case?
Thank you!

Hi all, I'm new and I've found I'm having trouble posting pictures. I'm using a Samsung galaxy note 9 but can't seem to find how to reduce my pictures size. I'm getting an error saying file too large. Any help will be greatly appreciated 🙏

what's the reason that you have to downsize your pictures so drastically on this forum? I don't host my knife pics on some website so I literally have to find some free website to reduce the size of a standard iphone picture of my knife. Just curious why the draconian limit on pic size on this forum.

You can use the method on the below thread. I use the direct link button. Once you get the hang of it, it is real fast. I have a bookmark to this site. No resizing necessary.
