Clue from burglary, but what is this thing? (see photos)
|
|
|
| We had a small break-in; the perp left a bunch of these, either
intentionally or not, scattered around the scene of the crime.
Does anyone know what this thing is or does? I thought it might be to
slow water-flow within a hose, but I'm not sure.
Thanks for your ideas. Here are the photos:

Yup, that's a bio ball for pond filtration.

He steals it from the neighbor's. He removes the "bio ball" from his
pocket to make room for other goodies. Here's a clearer picture.

Oh, cut him some slack- he probably has a low-end snapshot digital, and
considering the size of the object (see the penny in the pictures), the
pictures weren't that bad. Most consumer digitals do not do closeups worth a
damn, and when you zoom and crop the picture on the PC, the resolution goes
down. Sure, even with a cheap camera and some experience, you can do better,
but this isn't something most people do on a regular basis. A lot of ebay
pictures of small stuff are even worse.

Pics looked fine from here: You must have a shi__y
display.
Those that can, do, those that can't; XXXXX.

Learn how to use flash photography or use Photoshop with no-clutter
hosting like this. See his altered Photoshopped image:
Pass your mouse on the right corner of the image and click.

The larger ones (after clicking on the thumbs) *were* the lousy pics you
nitwit. You want to spend _your_ time running lousy pics through an
editor and screwing with them, so be it. FOAD.

Shut up you ole invalid bastard. If it wasn't for the gerbil, you
couldn't find your XXX in the dark with a flashlight.

As we all should do at first. Pics are much cleaner once digitally
enhanced. Like what this retailer did:

You couldn't solve the mystery object so you blame it on the OP.
Solve this without the text.
