Please help.
is there an easier way to insert pictures on playmofriends then the one i using today.
ill take the picture i want to insert on playmofriends and open it into paint.net
in paint.net ill use re-size image to get the picture smaller and then save the picture by dithering levels so the image will fit the imagesize required.
for me its alot of work.
Am i doing it wrong??

You can load them up to photobucket or similar sites and then link them to your posts. You may still want to resize them before uploading them as this makes the upload faster and is also helpful to members not on fast broadband, but you can just resize them all to a standard size.
I agree with you about having to resize before you can post them direct. You would think that there would be a bit of software which allowed you to specify the final size after resizing rather than specifying height and width.

When you click on an individual picture it will show up as a fuller screen of only that picture, picture edit mode. Whey you move your mouse cursor over the picture a set of options will show up on the top edge of the picture. File^ Edit ^ Resize ^ Rotate ^........etc... When you move your cursor over the resize a set of options will appear 100x75 120x120 160x120....etc. You select the one you want and reuese the new image link details.
You can also click edit when you are looking at your album with all the little pictures on one window. the blue box in that area when you move your cursor on an individual picture.

764 x 1024 Pixels

764 x 1024 Pixels
I use a 17" and a 19" screen and the picture does not quite fit, you have to scroll around to see it all. I think most members use 600x800

Hello.
I change my pictures on my PC
I use a base from Microsoft with the name "Office". Microsoft office.
In that base there are these programs:
Pictures manager
Word
Excel
Access
Powerpoint and some other.
In the program Pictures manager you can change your pictures in a few seconds in any size you want.
The Microsoft office is very famous here in Greece, everybody use this.
Maybe on your PC you will have something like this. Do you have some of the programs I wrote? If yes, maybe you will have a program for your pictures too.
Maybe in another base. I hope it will help you.

A very good (better?) alternative to Microsoft Office is OpenOffice which is a free download and much easy to use and more flexible than Microsoft Office. After years of Word and Excel etc at work, I abandoned them all for Open Office on my own machine.

Thanks for the info.
I think Microsoft Office is from 2003 so, I'm sure that Open Office is best. I must check this. I don't need this for my work, I use it only for my pictures with my playmos but I will take a look. Thanks again.

:yup: I never like microsoft and now both them and apple. They have a big heavy thumb holding down innovation.
So one thing that I do wonder about on what type of picture to load is for the long run.
When you use 3rd party sites all your info is held there and you are merely adding a link that shows up.
When you embed the info it is ??? stored on the PF's sites info?
Once the editing time has lapsed and it is written into the site (if it is ) you would not be able to remove it.
On third party sites all one would have to do is remove the info from that site and the link is now dead, picture does not show up.
Is that right?

By embed do you mean attach? Only attachments directly uploaded to the forum are stored permanently on PF's server.

Yes, that's right. If someone has a strop they can delete all of their remotely hosted images (Photobucket, ImageShack, etc) and it will usually leave a big mess behind here. ::) ... not forever, though. If I discover a topic that is no longer useful due to numerous deleted images, I usually remove it to prevent browsers becoming frustrated.

Yeah, I really hate when I look in a thread and find all the pictures gone. I guess when I do I should move them, then?

Yep, just put it in the Mods area and I will archive it. :)
That way it can always be pulled back up again at a later date, if it's really needed. ;)
