Now we have the photo section how would you like it to work?Post photos on anything what you think other members would enjoy.?Photos of Calne only? competions? Feedback required |

A forum for each?
User albums? (although i think this option is unrealistic unless the site is hosted privately) A caln only album? If i can divert your eyes this way http://www.darkplaces.co.uk/phpBB2/album.php This is an album created using phpbb code. Although, to be fair, this site is on a computer at the owners house so he has no restrictions on website size. |

| Clunk |

Now the photo section has been up and running for the last 6 weeks how do you think its working?do you like it/dislike it? any suggestions? |
| Clunk |
One suggestion I would like to make,
On the picture heavy topic's, Would it be possible to change the amount of posts per page to 5. This would increase the page loading time's. I know you can adjust the forum as a whole but not sure if you can do different threads separately. |

Website and Sending pictures over the Internet.
Website and Sending pictures over the Internet If a tree falls in the forest and no-one hears it, does it make a noise? This applies to those wonderful, pictures you have on your computer. Sharing them with others is fun and they may even like to view them. I have tried all methods and this procedure I present here is by far the best. It is relatively cheap and non-intrusive for the recipient. I have about 20 thousand photos on my site over a time period of about 8 years. They are always available by sending the URL via E mail. Method for Handling Photographs for distribution. Get a web site. Probably less than $7.00 per month. There are many but here is one: http://www.bluehost.org/en/home.php Get Breezebrowser to make HTML of your photos, to file, plus annotation if necessary. It only requires a few minutes to process pictures at any size ready for uploading to the website. http://www.breezesys.com/BreezeBrowser/ Get WS FTP or any other FTP program to upload your photos to your web site. http://www.download.com/3000-2160-10018456.html Here is a a sample of the web site. This is a short URL using notlong.com but there are others. The pictures were taken by a couple on a three week cruise in Europe. I posted them on my website as a favour.The site is Pompey. http://disgreer.notlong.com Short URL provided free. This is a convenience since some URL's are very long. http://notlong.com/ Using the method described above you are free of the shrills and their constant advertising on the various "Free" photo websites. Your site will be clean and fast. The uploaded photos will be excellent for viewing but not for printing. If the users want prints you can send the originals at a size that they can print using this free software via E mail. http://s6.yousendit.com/ I upload photos within literally minutes of getting home from a shoot, and notify all the recipients via E mail as to the URL of the site. |
