Thanks Chumley. These are the photos I wanted to post. Chumley took it from another forum. Anyway this is how I cover my carboy's.
I'm not on any forums other than this one so I have always assumed all forums were a PIA to post pictures to. Apparently not.

One of the best things about Tapatalk is how easy it is to post pictures here.
I agree about tapatalk making it easier if you have a picture on your phone to post. If someone doesn't have a smartphone or the picture is elsewhere its not very intuitive though. If I want to post a picture with more than a little text I actually type the text on a pc and post with tapatalk.

Not sure, I have tapatalk on android. If I have a picture on my phone I want to post all I have to do is start a post either by replying or new topic (if you use "quick reply" you need to hit the + sign to get the options) then hit the camera icon. From there the phone gives me options on how to access the picture and then select the picture.

Nice setup bierview.  I still have one of those three bubble airlocks.

My wife got pretty ticked at me this weekend
when I covered my carboy with that "fancy" hoodie she got me for Christmas.  ???

Beer-wear gave me fits as a new brewer.  I made some rather undrinkable batches after covering carboys with a thermal shirt to keep out the light.  At that point I didn't yet understand that fermentation generated heat and was created hot alcohol flavors.   
I still use them of course, but after the beer comes out of the fermentation chamber which i didnt have then.
