No idea, but ever thought of looking at the size of images that other people post and following their example? 2Mb is a bit of an overkill.

Lovely. Only my news server doesn't carry non-text groups.

Ah yes good idea

Oops

Forgivness is sought.

I have no idea how to do web sites.

A 2Mb image might explain why it never made it to my server. :-(

Granted, but it is worth considering because many people will not even look at a file size so big.

Not difficult, take a look at Fotopic - everyone else and their dog has! :-)

Just edited, resized and reposted it on abpr. Almost has a look of Wakefield (around Healey Mills) but maybe not?

John.

And others, like me, just cant be bothered to subscribe to a new group to look at one pic. WTF cant the OP put a link in his original post to a web page where the pic is? Why was it posted here in the first place without the relevant link though

Why would you want to look at just one pic? Abpr is a magnificent resource with pictures posted regularly from all over the world.

John.

Try it on the web instead:

Am I the only one to find that Fotopic sites are total penc, they take forever to open up and when they do all the pics will not show?

I wouldn't touch one with a bargepole, but many do quite successfully, and it seems to be a good place to start with a website.

Not my experience. I've just checked my photos on Fotopic and they came up straight away. There is (or was) an issue with the order in which photos are displayed ("Next" may not give the photo you expected), but that can be worked around. The owners of Fotopic are also very responsive to feedback in my experience.

Thanks for that Nick. I thought it was my problem that one out of fourteen pics was showing....
