Looks very nice indeed :)

Thanks!  Although it looks a little big; I know how to take care of that, though.

Big Pics are good :) Of course I have cable modem. Beth and Robo do the "Click on the thumbnail image" which is great, time consuming but a real blessing for slower connections.

I like bigger pics though - they allow me to make wallpaper without TOO MUCH pixelation and if you use jpeg with 25% progressive compression - you take a 1024x768 pic from 1.2 megs down to 110K - without much noticable loss.

Don't ever stop the pics - there are larger beekeeping forums, but not too many of them have images embedded as is here - I like to think that being a very big plus in this forum, the fact that we can communicate in so many ways. :)

Of coruse John is right the pictures here are telling a story them selves and I also beleive a big plus to the forum.
It is so much eaisier to explain some thing if people can see the pictures too.
By the way great picture of the frame your holding looks like the girls know what they are doing  :lol:   :lol:   :lol: .

I agree John. I love seeing everyone else photos. This picture opened up fine, not slow at all. And one of the main reasons I like to make the images small, with a link to something a little bigger, is because I share too many pictures. That way my post doesn't become a mile long because of photos taking up so much space.
I should actually make the picture that's linked even bigger, but that would mean I'd have to store those big pictures too. 1) It takes a long time for a big picture to upload somewhere, and 2) I'd want to have the original still on my computer just incase - that takes up lots of storage on my part.

I upload down sized pictures in the 600x400 pixel range to both imagestation.com and photobucket.com and save the orgianel to be burnet on a cd or put on a zip drive disk, and there are also what I call jump drive memory sticks that hold a lot of full size pictures.
