Posting your photos using thumbnails

19 years ago

Hey all!

Becky asked if the instructions were available for posting thumbnails. I added it to the FAQ along with the general photo posting thread.

If you have suggestions on how to make the instructions more clear or other additions to the FAQ, please let em know - I am HAPPY to add them!

    i hate thumbnails .... too much cliking back and forth .... ken

    I'm with you, Ken. Thumbnails are even more time-consuming than links. Give me an image that jumps out at me without clicking somewhere else, again to enlarge, and back again.

    GEEZ KEN!

    Last time I posted full sized photos, you complained they were too big!

    WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH!

    Thumbnails are a reasonable solution for those with dial-up to be able to load smaller images and click only on what they want to enlarge. Those who have broadband can click on them to get incredible detail! If you click on one of my thumbnail photos, then click it again it magnifies it even further.

    Then again, if you have no desire to see someones photos at all, then you don't have to waste ANY time or bandwidth while they load.

    There is also a way to enlarge them using the wheel thingy on a mouse rather than clicking. If you really have an aversion to that extra click, you may want to investigate that method.

    well here is the problem ..

    i block popups .... so if i click a thumbnail.. i have to first click on every post to unblock popups ....

    then i have to click each thumb..

    then i have to click to close each thumb ...

    thats a lot of clickin ....

    its just too overwhelming at times ... rotflmbo .....

    bottom line: do whatever pleases you .... who cares what i think ... i have the right to state my opinion .... you have the right to ignore my opinion.. NO MORE NEED BE SAID [which is apparently a thesis they dont quite understand over in the daylily forum ....lol....] ..

    >>>>>> DO WHATEVER PLEASE YOU .....

    ken

    PS: when i complained about your big ones.. when you first tried your new camera ..... they wordwrapped on my 15 inch monitor... now that is just too big.. and it overwhelmed me .. lol ...

    I came over here to get away from all the bickering on the DL forum, and here you guys are bickering.....I HOPE it's all in fun?

    I just gave Becky instructions on how to create thumbnails in the "A" Hostas.

    I guess I'll do a little of both - thumb's and full size.
    There's just no pleasing everybody, is there?

    absolutely .. i am mocking the day lillers.. and poking fun at one of my best GW buds here...

    never forget.. when you come to a new forum .. you might not know who the best buds are ...

    all in all ... there isn't any bickering here ... and when there is.. i just leave that post ... and NEVER go back ... as you note.. who needs the aggravation ...

    Alexa and i have gone as far as trading recipes... if that tells you anything ....

    someone once told me.. and i quote loosely ... that if you ever want to see the worst of people... join a church group or a garden club ... then he went insane and got himself kicked off all the garden forums ... lol ... and he was an atheist .. so he didn't worry about church groups.. and now he is lonely ... lol

    take care.. and welcome to the hosta forum.. ken
