Default Is That A Tomatoe You Are Talking About?

Here we get a lot of threads, asking questions, making inquiries about various Not-So-Familiar tomato varieties.
They keep talking about their shape, size, and color and more.
Sometimes I would just not get into such discussions. I am a visual person.
To me a picture can say a lot more than a college term paper.
To me talking about a tomato variety, disease, (without picture )... is like:

A DOG WITHOUT A BONE ,
A CAT WITHOUT A HOME.

Pictures are just fine along with a person describing a person's opinion as to taste, yield and all else.

But there are MANY persons who do not have a cell phone or regular camera to be able to take pictures, so let's appreciate that as well and give all of them a bit of slack.

Carolyn, who no longer has a regular camera, bless her old Minolta that was stolen many years ago that was stolen from a filing cabinet in her office, and a cell phone is useless where she is, not enough bars and that b'c of being blocked by terrain. it's one thing to say that one can move mountains, ahem, it's quite another issue to be able to actually move them.
