Post your animal pictures!

Belated edits to add "how to post pictures" links within this thread:
1. As a photo host link:

2. As an attachment:


Hi All,

I thought I would start a thread on posting pictures of our loving animals. These are my two babies; I'm going to be adding another baby to my home here soon. I'm adopting another black female kitty like my female cat.

Blacks: 8yrs. 6months old (Female)

Bouncer: 5yrs 11months. (Male)

Zandalee, I have a great deal of difficulty posting photographs. I've found the most reliable way is to insert the photograph into a Word document, and copy and paste from there. If I try to do it directly, I get told the file is too big.

Maybe one of the moderators will be able to tell us simpler ways!

Thank you much, Crowan I will try this method. Yes, the mood raptors are very helpful! I am a very proud subject of my doggies and they love their photos to be seem. One I believe is a requirement of his..that Ollie Rue!

Well, there are many ways. Unfortunately most people's cameras (and camera phones) take images that are essentially too big for a screen, as they're designed to be of a quality good enough to print (screen resolution is typically 72 dots per inch or 96 dots per inch, whereas a quality photo printer will print at least 600 dots per inch or 1200 dots per inch); so a photo quality image usually contains more information than is needed to just display it on a screen. Copying and pasting via Word can work to reduce the quality, but often your camera software or phone software will also have ways of producing a file that is smaller in size and suitable for "web usage".
Personally I have Paint Shop Pro software that I can use to take a photo and change it's size.
One thing you can do though, if you don't have that software is, get your image on the screen to a suitable size, click on your Start button in Windows (assuming you're using windows and not Mac) and type "snip" and you should see a program appear called "Snipping Tool". Choose that program and then it will allow you to click and drag to mark an area of the screen; so click and drag around your image. This will then appear in the Snipping Tool software where you can save it to a file, and it will be only as big as the image was on your screen, and the file will be smaller to upload. (Via the "Upload a File" option at the bottom of the Healthpages editor), or you can just copy and past the image from the Snipping Tool direct to the editor.
