Awesome. Thanks. I've traversed the continent by car twice in two months and am preparing for the third trip in a few weeks....to see my children and my grandson (I was a VERY young mother and VERY young grandma :~) )
Would love to post a few photos of this awesome country's citizens, have a few great shots of ranchers in Montana, loggers in Washington, farmers in Iowa, bikers in Sturgis (a story in itself---Sheesh I never even heard of Sturgis until I just happened to be passing through during the annual bike rally---thought I had entered the Twilight Zone!)
I have an Olympus digital...but need to learn how to bring them online. Digital photography I know, internet skills I do not!!!!!
LOL,LGE
I feel kind of young to be a granpa at 45 too ... but wouldn;t trade it for the world. That little critter Braedon sure won this old cowboy's heart.
Regarding the pics ... your camera should have a way to download the pics to your computer.
What I do is this.
- Download the pics.
- Open them in editing program, I use Paint Shop Pro. It's the best out there IMHO for the money.
- Choose what you want on the web (either whole pictures, cropping, zooms, etc.).
- Reduce the resoultion of what's going on the web to around 350 X 300 pixels or so. This makes them small enough so that even 56K hookups like mine will display them fairly reasonably.
- Use FTP to upload the pics you choose to your web space. If you have an ISP, you may have space. They should let you know how to access it.
- Use HTML to link to the photos, or create a page to display them. On FR posts, you can just use the IMG command to display them from your web space here on FR. It's what I do, and what I did on this post.
Hope that helps.
OBTW, I bumped a couple of my "Book" thread to your attention.
Regards.
