Petroholic..if you run out of space on image shack you can use www.photobucket.com as well. I use that one more ..and they resize your pics for you. Some people like imageshack better but I use photobucket more. Great pics..thanks for sharing

I can't help with Image Shack, but I can give a few pointers about posting pictures.

Here's Petroholic's picture as he posted it.
(640X480)


Here's the same picture, still 640X480, but I've cropped some of the background out.


This time I reduced the image size by 20%. (512 X 384)



Now the same picture (512 X 384) but I've brightened it up a bit so you can see more detail.


If you crop the background out, the images will load faster.
If you reduce the size of the image, it will load faster.
Most images that I post for myself and others benefit from being brightened up.
Hope this helps.
Bob

Most camera's have a resolution of 72. Some pictures I post or email, I reduce the resolution to 60 and the width to 6". They load/send/receive faster for the guys like me with DIAL UP service.

To find out how a picture will look when received in an email or post, EMAIL IT TO YOURSELF 1st. IF you are on DIAL UP or the RECIPIANT IS, you will know how long it takes to send/receive.

When I have someone EMAIL a picture, that I want to see the FINE DETAILS. I have them ENLARGE the picture [maybe 200 inches] & DROP the RESOLUTION [to maybe 1 or 2]. I then SAVE AS to a folder/file. I then use PHOTOSHOP to open, resize the image to 300 RESOLUTION and a viewable size of 8 inches width. WORKS GREAT for ME.
