19 to post that this group is not about light bulbs AND to please take the discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum.

11 to defend the posting to the group, saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this group.

36 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty.

7 to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs.

4 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly AND then post the corrected URL.

From the SS it looks like you're running on incandescent, I would upgrade to LED.

One was white one brown and one black But the moderation sent it to my personal page and not to gallery they say that one was not lightening the other was a scratch from Rickalot's light-bulb and for third lightbulb they gave no reason I want this to be explained.

Boy, did I open up a can of lightbulbs. Now my question is, is this considered a lightbulb or just a fluorescent bulb?

In the future, there might be some discretion in displaying one's clementines. :NOTSURE:  Leaving them in full view might offend some. :SURPRISED:  I, on the other hand, am open-minded and don't find this offensive.  :D 

BTW, I also whole-heartedly support the open display of light bulbs!  :CONGRAT:
