Today in Old Virginny - an ancient truck and perfect pumpkins












I used this to test "postimage" - mourning with clenched teeth that photobucket is dead for me - and guess what:
It was easy, very acceptable reproduction, and much much faster all the way around.

Hmm. I just looked at the sizes available through postimage, and I can't tell which one that is. CaliforniaPeggy Oct 2017 #3
I click on "upload" on the very left, at the top Mira Oct 2017 #4

I too did some mourning over photobucket......but I LOVE using postimage. Once you get used to how they are set up, it's really good.



What size image are you using with these photos?

If I end up correct with the ease of this I am going to be so happy.
It's a complete dream so far.

I use the "direct link." I don't see a size listed with it.

and this menu appears:
Post your images here

Get permanent links for Facebook, Twitter, message boards and blogs

then there are drop down options, one of them is the sizes
the fifth one says: 800x 600 15" monitor



I am still too new at using it - only tonight to be of more help at this point
plus I have a headache it's been a long day

Now I see what you did.

I'm doing it a different way.......there are other options that show up with each photo. I'll spare you the details tonight...

Take care of your headache and may it soon be gone, dear Mira!
