We also beefed up the insulation and it made a nice difference in the cooling bill. Here in Florida we went with replacing the shingles since I didn't think metal would look right with the house. So if it fits the style of house you have I would pick metal. 1 hour ago, molly361 said: I was told that they can be noisier. I thought the pitter patter of rain on the metal might be nice but then again not so much all night long so I went with shingles. 12 minutes ago, h20skibum said: That could be a toss up. Do you have any large trees that could drop limbs on your house? Our neighbor behind us put in a new storage shed with a metal roof last year, and a large limb fell on it and crushed the ridge cap and a couple panels. They haven’t done any type of repair on it, and I imagine it would be more difficult than asphalt shingles. We had a large limb puncture a hole in the roof of our storage barn. It was pretty easy to repair, because I had shingles left over from when they replaced our roofs in 2020. That was the best time to have work done, because everyone wanted the work when they realized it would be longer than 2 weeks to stop the spread. Thanks for the input. A Spanish tile type roof would look nice on the house. It is cost prohibitive to do tile which is why I didn't do it when we built it but now they can simulate it with metal. I had given some thought to the noise issue but it is a "hip" style roof so it's surface is pretty far above the second story ceiling so I don't "think" it would be too big a issue. I never considered the repair issue. I would definitely have to look into that. Trees could be an problem. I once had a tree damage the roof of my office building and the asphalt roof was pretty easy and inexpensive to fix. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at your camera roll. In the upper corner if it says raw that is the issue because CC does not support Raw format. You can switch your camera in your settings menu or in the camera. There is a button upper right that says Raw. Press it and a line will go through it indicating that it is shooting in JPEG mode. 12 hours ago, helen haywood said: Thanks. I tried that…thinking the photo I previously shot might not post but one I just changed format of would…sigh, no. I’ll try getting some help from Apple or Rent-A-Teenager tomorrow. Hope your knee is getting better…and your wife is also doing well. Greg, you are AMAZING! Helen, this does correct it. When I upgraded to iPhone 15 PM, the phone was set for ProRaw, which I don’t use for photos when I’m just posting online. Go to Settings on your phone, then Camera, then Formats, scroll down to ProRAW & Resolution Control. Toggle off. Take that photo again, this time the new photo will upload. You can’t “reassign” a setting to an existing photo, but your new pics should upload now. 🙂 Edited November 17, 2023 by barbeyg 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the days when I was an I.T. professional, my company issued Blackberry's for corporate use as both Android & iPhone were deemed too vulnerable. My next company issued me an iPhone as a work phone. Being an Android guy, it was culture shock. It wasn't until I was about to leave that company that Androids became "secure enough" to use as a work phone & I could stop carrying around 2 phones with me wherever I went.

There you can select JPEG, RAW or RAW Pro max. I selected JPEG. When I went to take a trial picture even though I’d just changed the settings it came up with JPEG with a line crossed through it. I held that icon down and got rid of the line…took two pictures, one before removing the line through JPEG and one after. Neither photo will post. Sigh. Sorry to take up so much of everyone’s time.

And if you really want to spend big bucks on a roof, and go green, you can always spring for a Tesla roof. My son was actually looking into one of these to replace his roof in California. I somehow got on Elon’s mailing list for these, after I toured the Tesla plant in Fremont. For me, it was a hard no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn’t post then either. But, when I toggled ProRAW off entirely, it changes it to JPEG, and I can post. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
