Oh Howard, I don't know what to tell you. I have to figure out a quick and easy way to post these pictures. I want to just show everyone their pictures, but it cost money and takes time to have a website. It also takes forever to upload to photobucket, plus it will cost me money to upload this many pictures.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS????

http://imageshack.us/ works great. If you want to reduce the size of the image file, load it up in ms paint and shrink it down in size and then upload it to imageshack and paste the image link on here! Lets see some pics!

There are two great photo storage and sharing sites - one is Flickr or another is Picasa. The both work very well and are free, and they can be incorporated into websites easily. I use picasa because I use Google Apps for my business - I love Google anything!

Let me know if you have questions. I have been an IT professional for 20+ years, and I also do web development and graphics for fun - you can see my latest site I did at http://www.questwellness.ca.
Thanks,

David

If you need to reduce the size of a bunch of images, XnView is a free piece of software that works great and can be run in a batch process, which will save you a great deal of time. Then, the reduced size photos will upload much faster.

I can reduce the file size on my computer easily. I need a site that will host my images for free. I know Photobucket works great, but I have more pictures than it will load for free. Flicker shares your photo's which means I have to keep them ALL on my computer. I like to export everything to a external HD.

I'm trying Imageshack. It doesn't seem to have any size limitations.

Thanks for the info people!

When you view your own photo's in Facebook and you are the account holder, after clicking the album that you want to share, there is a little blurb on the bottom that says "Share this album with anyone by sending them this public link:" and below that is a html address. Post that and anyone even without a facebook account can view the photo's. I do this with crazy people like thirtyseven who either aren't allowed permission on there or believe it's sponsored by the CIA. :smirk:

The pictures on facebook are great. It's awesome that Trudy takes the pictures and uploads them so quick. :applause: :applause: I'm happy with what ever is easiest for her.

I'm not much of a facebook fan but it's easy enough to create an account there, if you want to see the pictures. :smirk:

Those are some fantastic shots, lots of good action!

I would love to spend a day shooting, but the drive to beat myself up racing is slightly greater.

Thanks!
