Subject: I have a question about uploading photos on the internet???

When I've upload photos previously, Cece has been kind enough to do it for me. Since I don't want to continue to impose, I'm wondering what the options are for uploading & posting photos? Are there specific sites that folks like? Are the photos secure, or can anyone copy them after they've been uploaded? Are there size requirements for the various photo sites? And remember, I'm a Mac person...that's the computer not the character, LOL!

I have these fantastic photos from my garden. They are all "up close" nature shots, some with butterflies, bees, etc. The resolution is amazing! You can see the "fur" on the bee, and even see the wings buzzing. The floral shots are beautiful. Since we discussed garden, I thought folks might be interested, but I don't know how to post them.

Thanks for the help!!!!!!!!!!!!

[> I have an account with a web host (brinkster), that I pay for. I can upload photos and can post them on the HB or other web sites. I host the HBX archives, two personal web sites, and sites for a couple of friends on the same Brinkster account. However, you may not need that kind of thing. Why not try Picasa (a free Google application. ) Here is the link (Inside) -- Cece, 16:14:12 08/02/08 Sat [1]

As long as you post on a public web site like the HB, anyone can down load your pictures to their hard drives. That doesn't usually pose a problem, but it is not wise to post pictures of children on a public web site, as who knows how some sicko can use them.

Of course, if you send a pictures in e-mail from your hard drive or from a private link (like Picasa), that has no user interface, you are pretty safe.

[> Cece, while answering doc's question, you gave me the information that I also needed. Thank you. I am one of the last hold outs and am getting my digital camera this week, so I'll probably be back with more questions. Checked the Picasa link and it sounds like what I need. Thanks again. -- ED - who has learned many things from information posted on the Harm Drive, 14:23:44 10/18/08 Sat [1]
