Default Anniversary meal

I've never bought this much steak for two in my life.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yf73zpdp1i...Ready.jpg?dl=0
And it's ready to eat.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/e5fesayk09...Ready.jpg?dl=0
And since few could eat it all, here's my leftovers which should show
doneness.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ndg10gyioc...tover.jpg?dl=0

Tinypic got cute with me tonight and wouldn't allow me to upload
anything after the first pic without a secret password which I'd then
enter and be rejected. I got sick of it after ten attempts, so here's
dropbox. I reduced the jpg quality to 50 percent, so the pictures
shouldn't be over large. This is my first attempt with DropBox, and it
seems to work OK.

Seems to have worked well. A little slow to load but much better than
tinypic, photobucket et al.

That's a giant amount of meat alright. My guess is that American style steaks will be a thing of the past in the brave new sustainable world. Grass fed, free-roaming, cattle of small to medium breed is what's predicted in the world of steaks. They'll be smaller, leaner, and greener. It's supposed to be more flavor-packed but I don't know. Americans won't take kindly to the new steaks reality.

Happy anniversary - everything looks delicious! I did need to sign
into Dropbox though.

Google Drive seems to have shareable links that don't require a sign
in. Knowing what certain people here do when given the chance, make
sure that you select the "view only" option if you decide to try it.

Happy Anniversary.
The dinner looks wonderful.
I didn't have any problems viewing the photos in dropbox, nor did I
have to sign in to see them.

Yes, Happy anniversary... I neglected to say that in my last reply.

That's odd, I didn't have to sign in, nor do I have an account anyway.

Neither did I! There was a window to sign in but I just closed it.

Good job - meat just the way I like it.

I wonder if it made me sign in because I have an account?

That's what I was thinking (the cookies on your computer would tell
them that). I'll make an account and see what happens.

Hmm. So I made an account, verified it and signed out. Then I clicked
on Leonard's dropbox link and got this:
http://www.hostpic.org/images/1610120539170095.jpg

As you can see, the pic is visible and I didn't need to sign in.

Just like with Steve's flickr, I emailed myself your pics and saw them
on the laptop with updated Firefox. It took awhile but then, everything
takes awhile to download here.

That was two BIG steak meals and your doneness looked just what I like.
Leftover steak is always a good thing for me too. I like to slice it
thin and put on buttered toast.

I did notice all the great mushrooms but no onions?

Anyway, looks great and a slightly belated "Happy Anniversary" to you
and your wife!

Thanks. I was still signed into Dropbox, so it opened perfectly just
now in spite of deleting cookies at the end of every session, and
shutting down every night. I know Dropbox didn't recognize me because
I'd never visited on this computer. They didn't make it obvious that
I could dismiss the sign-in screen and to be perfectly honest, I
didn't think about hitting esc to see if that would help.
