I support light bulbs unconditionally.
How did oranges get into this thread? They now even have a definition and a quality picture.

Hehehe. Very, funny.
From the SS it looks like you're running on incandescent, I would upgrade to LED.
sViz waits for the incandescent VS. LED war to begin
Is this the right forum for help
just got my christmas lights out and one of the lights is not working
what program do I need to get said light to work like the rest of them
Red light not working if that helps on a 240v system

i've submitted three lightbulbs yesterday. 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. 
Leaving them in full view might offend some. 
I, on the other hand, am open-minded and don't find this offensive. 
BTW, I also whole-heartedly support the open display of light bulbs!
