Arlington, TX
Skimming surface of my pool for insects to view and ID
Came across this one.
~4mm with proportionately large apparently piercing proboscis
Never seen one this long on fly that was not from the Nematocera
Anyone?

Sorry but the forum will not let me upload the pic. It's 1.06Mb. It states that this forum has reached its attachment limit. ?

You need to upload the photo to a web hosting site and then post a link in your post here. If correctly formatted the image will appear directly in the post.
I recommend imgur.com for photo hosting, and here are instructions how to post photos on the forum once you have joined:
After you sign up and log in to the website you will see a green circle top right. Click it for a menu to appear, then click on "images" and you will see a green "add images" button on the right, click that and upload your images there. Next click on the image you want to post here and you will see it on the left with a link menu on the right. Click "Copy" next to the link labelled "BBCode (message boards & forums)", then just paste the link in your post on the forum in the place you want the photo to appear. This way you can post as many photo links as you want inside a single forum post.
The reason I recommend imgur is that it is free and easy to use, giving you the pre-formatted links. I am not sure whether other sites also automatically provide the various types of links for different purposes or not, but I guess it is possible they do.
Adam.
