Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Thumbnails ?
OK Im hoping one of our website-saavy members can help me out .
Trying to build my site with the Go-daddy program , cost about $15 ,and I think ill get a decent looking site out of it . 
Just one problem. Displaying my pictures in a OK file size , that will load quickly and so the pics wont be too small .
Anyone know how i can make my pics into thumbnails for the site ?
Do these (thumbnails ) automatically link to a full size page of the pic or something ? Or do i need to so something special for that ? Im just lost !
The 'performance test ' says a few of my pages will be slow ,and i think its because of the pics . Well if i make them an "OK" size , they are too small . 
HELP ?  Appreciate it !

Well you can do it 1 of 2 ways:
#1 Load the full size image on a page, then reduce it to smaller size (thumbnail) then put the thumbnail where you want it and link the thumbnail to the full size page
#2 Write a code what till do the link for you but you still have to have the image loaded full size somewhere, my code does the reduction for me
here is a test page I am working on for my site redo that will show the thumbnail page, if it was finished you would be able too see each photo and click an image and go to the full size image but I wrote the code for it and it does the thumbnail for me, all I have to do is plug in the http: for each photo slot to the original size photo and my code does the rest, oh except I do haev to put it the photo name and all under each photo.
Just ignore everythign but the thumbnail size and placement, I am still thinking about colors and such lol

HAHA I was doing that , but thought there must be a better way OR that i would run out of room for all the pages it would take to do that
Also the program doesnt let you see or write the whole html so getting the pic in the right place is HARD to figure out .
Well this helps a bit ,guess I was doing OK with it

Dan, writing codes SUCKS at the best but I get my hosting for $24 a year and I bought a simple program for $28 for a lifetime with free upgrades. Its all drago and drop, where you put it is where it is when you load the page, but I didn't want to haev to do all of the photos full size on different pages then reduce the size and add links so it took me about 3 weeks and tons of online searching to figure out how to do the code to plug in the full size and it does the rest for me lol.
So to me that is better than $15 a month, just takes alot of time, I had to write the menu code too and now that I have the menu and thumbs how I want them I cannot for the life of me decide on colors and such lol

I have coolpage from coolpage.com
It writes the complete htm for you but for the menus and thumbs I had to insert the code that I wanted them to look like, it won't do mouse overs without a seperate code insertion.
If you can ftp to go daddy you just make the site and hit publish, put in your ftp access and password and it does it all for you. If you can't ftp, then you save as htm and upload the file to the publichtm file.
Sorry if I an getting confusing, Cory does some NICE work, he made a sample logo for me that I LOVE LOVE LOVE but with hubby loosing his job a few weeks ago it will be a long time before I can get a more professional site done so Im just trying to get something better than what I have for the mean time.
