Hey guys,
I'm trying to post my photos for an hour, but all I get is an error has occurred cause the file is too large. I know it's me, and not the site...so what do I do now? Can I shrink photos?
Thanks
Dom
Yes, you use a program called photoshrink! ;D ::) Just kidding.
there are a number of photo hosting sites - I use Image Shack - that let you post your pictures in an online account for FREE. Once you set this up then when uploading photos it will give you the option to resize for web sites. One box to click then hit upload.
From there you open that site and this one in separate tabs/windows.
Type your post here, click the second row, second icon -insert image - and copy the photo hosting image link and paste it over here.
Hope that made sense. Photobucket is another site to host images.

Really?! That sounds like a pain in the #@*. That's the only way, huh? Well guys the photos are gonna have to wait till next Monday when mom gets here cause I'm a computer re-re... sorry guys we all have our downfalls. Thanks for the heads up, Steve. I'll show mom this email, and let her make heads or tails of it.

Photo hosting can be really expensive for a private site like this, and this site come out of Alan's pocket. Other sights can host photos because they usually have sponsors and advertisers that help pay for the extras. I know it's a pain, but at least this sight is filled with free information without getting bleeped by an add hoping that you will buy something.
Whoa! ... I'm on this site cause I love the hobby, knowledge sharing, comradery, and the lack of pop ups/ advertisers/ flashing crap all over the screen, too. All I was saying is I was hoping it would be easier for a computer re-re like myself. Let's see what mom can do, she was a secretary for 40 years...I'm sure she can figure it out. I don't think you guys know how long it takes me to just write a posting like this (about ten minutes). God Bless Alan... if yall didn't know how I feel about Alan's generosity now you do:) Hey Bryan, some of those viagra ads may be good for some of these ole' salts on this site ::) Don't worry... I won't mention names :o

Hey Dom, Can you imagine how log it takes us to do a tutorial?
try hosting you photo on photobucket.com and then use the [img] function to display it here. it works great!
I'm gonna try it on Monday when mom's here. Thanks Guys!
