Find us so good pictures!

PS But there are plenty of good pictures of chimps at a zoo!
It is there.

Agreed that black and white has been messed up by uploading it to photobucket.

Try this. Look about 1/5 down and just left of center.

I can't even see that the first one is in color, much less find anything other than twigs in it. Stepping back just makes it look worse.

If you had a video of that still picture we might be able to make out more. But it is still a poor picture. We could never determine size from that picture; how would we know if it is a green eyed mouse or something larger? How do we know if it not just a wooden sign with a green insect on it? Our imaginations could run wild with the little bit of information presented by that poor picture.

Photographers, while sometimes can use poor pictures, usually discard them searching for their best pictures. You need more than that to 'prove' any of these claims.

I do want you to come forward with evidence; I like evidence. But our individual definitions of 'evidence' is not on the same playing field.

I need an image site that won't put their logo across the photos. Any suggestions?
I store photos on my phone. Or computer. Then when you upload there’s no tags.

The one Photo Bucket picture also featured good pictures of bears. Heck, if you offered one of those pictures of a bear as proof that they live in the area, it would be a credible first start. Of course we could still question that because how would we know where you took the picture?

Your insistence on poor quality photos hurts your case. Unfortunately you do not see that and that hurts the case even more.
I don't know how to do it but most devices also record the exact location that they take pictures. I am sure a quick google search would provide details for those interested.

You are just wrong. The creature is there. The green eye is its right eye.
The chimp photo is as says. Sure there are great photos of chimps in zoos. The point you miss is a posted it to show that creatures in foliage a very hard to define in most photographs.
People expecting a posed photo with no cover in front of it; are just whistling dixie.

Move it to your computer then upload directly to this site. There is no need for the photobucket step. Also photobucket slowly decreases the quality of your pictures/videos. I have some I uploaded years ago in HD that you can't even tell what I recorded anymore.

It doesn't matter what service the photo is hosted on, it's always going to be a dark shape behind lots of leaves. It could be bigfoot wearing a white and gold dress, or it could be a rusty sign. There is no sense of scale. Why are there no pictures of the same spot without the "creature" in it? or at least a picture of a human standing where it supposedly was?
