Emailing & posting photos
Permalink  

My prepaid computer plan is via "virginbroadband", contacting the GNF direct via "Outlook" is a no-can-do for me. So, rahter than clog up the forum with my simple queries,I attempted to send some photos via "the times". A member asked me for some doggie photos on the section "travelling with pets". Is it a simple task to upload photos and put in forum or send "privately" to a member?  The attempt to "the times" took all the disc space!! And there were only 3 photos!! Some code - "JPG" whatever that means!

Firstly, can you explain what "the times" is?

Do you have the photos on you computer in My Pictures?

Is that right wombat. Do you and he mean the newsletter and if he is posting them there who gets to see them?
I was going to give him advise but wasn't sure if he had the photos in My Pictures and he hasn't come back on.

not sure if I am right only guessing its GNT, I would think his pics are on his pooter, posting stuff through the GNT would only go to Cindy, I would think

I had a look on the front page. Photos to The Times if it is that would be no benefit at all.
Hopefully he has read your instructions by now.

he may come back in soon.

JPG is a good format but if you keep copy and pasteing the same pic over and over again you will loose quality, GIF is another smaller compresstion but not very good quality, TIF is a good option to use as you do not loose quality.

Have sent you a PM Noel, but I don't know if the info. will be of any use, after re-reading your post.    What E-mail and Home page are you using ?

Cheers,

Sheba.
