Gallery Back online + Important Announcement.

Seakindly,
The usernames and passwords for the gallery are case sensitive. I just created your login. Your username for the gallery is "seakindly" and the password is the same as the username "seakindly" (all lowercase)

Try to keep the pictures under 100k each in size. Some of the newer digital cameras (2+ megapixels) will take HUGE digital pics that need to be resized using a photo editing program . . .

Resize the pics with your photo editor to:

8" x 11" (or smaller) @ 72dpi. This is the best size.

(mj or I can help if this doesn't make sense).

MJ - I am looking into gallery features that will automatically resize pics over 100k and junk the originals. Right now the resize feature keeps the originals after resizing them. I am sure that this feature exists, but I haven't been able to find it yet.

If you are interested in the web address is:

I will try looking and see what I can find.
Just trying to help you out boss.
Seakindly if you do not have a resize program you can email to me and I will do it for you.

Seakindly, I just found this resize program for free at download.com
I downloaded it and it works ok. And it is free.
So if you don't already have a resize program try it out.

Is the site moved yet??

I just tried to log into my gallery with seakindly/seakindly and was denied. ???

My pics are stored in 2 places.

1) on my computer hard drive as .jpg files. These are the original 25 pics at full resolution. Each pic is about 250 - 400 kb in size.

2) I also uploaded my pics to Yahoo Photos. They are stored at full resolution and (printable for a price) thru Yahoo at full resolution. They are also viewable online at "screen size" which is a reduced resolution of unknown (at this time) file sizes. Although the resolution is somewhat reduced they look fine on my moniter. One of the nice things about this free service is that it allows you to correct/enhance the photos. I can probably save these improved pics to my computer and then load them into my gallery. Hopefully they will not need further resizing.

Macojoe, thank you for your kind offer. I would much rather do this (with your help and bigshrimpins help) myself, than dump this project onto your computer. I really would like to learn how to do this kind of stuff, and move into the 21st century.

My V21 AND I are being buried in snow as I type. :'( This would be a good weekend for me to do this.

Suppertime! :D

That snow's heading our way. I think MJ has been getting it for a little while now down on Cape Cod. Just started about 45 minutes ago here at my house. >:( :-/

[macojoe]

I was in taunto till 8pm and i headed home. Well we went 35 mph in 4 wheel drive all the way home!!

At times it was a total white out could not see a thing!!

Took us 2 houirs 10 min to get home which is a 1 hour ride at best normally!!! I am glad to be home.

New site is coming . . . http://69.49.253.173

I'll switch the DNS when I have everything transfered and working . . . I'll let you guys know when that happens and there will be a 24 hour downtime when the DNS changes.

Thanks for your patience!!

Seakindly - Hang onto the photo's . . . Shouldn't be much longer.

OK Bigshrimpin, I wanted to wait till you get the new site together before I try to fill out my gallery, anyway.
Sure don't want to have to do it twice!

Macojoe, I tried to save my improved photos from Yahoo Photos to my computer last night, but I couldn't do it. It seems like Yahoo changed something since last week when I captured the modified photo that I have in my gallery now. I am going to e-mail one of the improved photos from Yahoo to you. Maybe you can figure out how to get them back out of Yahoo??? I still have the originals on my hard drive, but I would rather post the improved photos to my gallery.

My daughter was using my computer to check her email and thought she was emptying her email and trashed mine!!
So I lost your pic!! Email it to me again will ya! Thanks

I am going to go fool aeound there now to see what I might see.
