I resize my photos (because they are 1 or 2 mb in size before I retouch em) and put my name on them as a watermark.  Makes it discouraging for people to claim my work and theirs. Resizing them to about 100 kb in size is perfect.  Most photo places or programs have a resizing feature.

You can also minimize in size using Paint, which is included on almost every microsoft computer ... to to your "start" button, then "programs", then "accessories".  All you need to do is open your photo like any other file.  Click on "image", then "stretch/skew" and decide how much smaller you want your photo - 25% or 50% or whatever you like.  A watermark requires a more powerful photo editing software (one that creates layers) so as not to distort the original image.

OMG! It worked! :o ;D But how to I post it as a thumbnail that would allow people to go to my gallery, so as not to take up so much space on the Forum? I mean, the way eagle posted her photo of her cat the other evening and the way bev posts her photos. :-\

Read reply #57 below Kinderchick  ;) ;D

Try this one again Eagle and just make sure that you haven't missed what is known as the closing bracket  - the trick is to just make sure you copy all the code.  It happens to me all the time  ;)

Here's the second option



Move your cursor over the photo and you will see it is an active link ... and if you click on it, it will take you to the photographer's album

2.  Preferred process ...

a.  Under "share this photo" click on the link that says "see more" and up will pop a new window ...
b.  Click on "get link code
c.  Find "IMG for bulletin boards & forums" then copy the code to the left of "clickable thumbnail"
d.  Paste code into reply box on the Forum ...


Why is this preferred, because you can post one or a couple of photos and if folks want to see more (and they will), all they need to do is click on the photo and it will take them directly to your photo album.

But now this is really creepy, why do I see a photo of my husband's face just below my photo, beside the words "post a comment"? :o
