and NOTHING is appearing! ???

 

[Dan Murphy]

Oh, you are SO close, triple B. You are missing the / in the last img thing. Make it look like this..............

&#91img]http://webclipart.miningco.com/library/Menu/yrib12s.gif[/img]

And you will get this...................

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

BLESS YOU DAN!!!! I never would have caught that!

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

Another quick question Dan. Is it not suppose to show up on my old post? Or will that slowly happen?

 

[Dan Murphy]

It is on your other posts now. With the problems in the DIS servers of late, I do see MANY red x's around. Yours was red a moment ago and now it is showing up. But it is on the old posts as well.

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

Thanks Dan. I am not seeing it on the old ones yet-must be a server issue or something I don't understand. But I DO see it here! At least I know how to do it now! Thanks again!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Well, I went and looked at older posts of yours, and I do not see it there. I do see it on all the ones here though. It should show up on the old ones too, maybe it wll take time. Right now there is a space for it, but no ribbon. I know that a signature change flows through to past posts. Did you have your signature turned on on all your past posts? I looked at about 4 or 5 of them

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

Under my profile, everything under Signatures is turned "on". Always has been. Is there somewhere else to check?? Maybe just slow...

 

[Dan Murphy]

It just must me slow in the reindexing of old posts. There is nothing you can do.

And hope things are going well for you, Triple B.

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

Thanks Dan. As well as can be expected with DH about to leave for Baghdad. He has been away from us almost 2 weeks now. Glad the kids will be back to school in a week. This is the hardest thing we have been through.
I am thankful for the technology he will have while he is there-e-mail and phones. A big difference from Desert Storm.
I guess this is off topic! Yikes!
Thanks for the ribbon help.

 

[Dan Murphy]

A sad time it is. As in the the past, my good wishes and prayers are with him, Triple B, you guys and all who serve. God bless.

Thanks for helping me this afternoon with resizing my picture!!

I would really appreciate directions on how to do this in the future! Also, how do I put 2 or more pics next to each other??

I am really grateful for all of your help!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Okay, just a few ideas here for a starter.

This will only make a picture LOOK smaller, in height and or width, not really make it smaller, and no effect on the bytes of the picture.

Your picture you had was this.......

If your right click on it, you will see it is over 41K and 480X640. Both over the limits. Up in the FAQ thread from Mary Jo, there is a thread link as to the permitted dimensions. Less than 400X400 and under 35K.

To make it 400 wide, you would do this, using html <>, not UBB []........

&#60img width=400 src=http://photos.imageevent.com/kpoelzer/weddingphotos/photosbydawnpeake/websize/Pritchard%20Wed%200513.jpg>

You do need one space after the img and one after the size, 400 here. If it is on two lines, it is just word wrap, those are the only spaces, those two, and you would get this...........

<img width=400 src=http://photos.imageevent.com/kpoelzer/weddingphotos/photosbydawnpeake/websize/Pritchard%20Wed%200513.jpg>

Still too high though.

So, to make it not as high, you would do this.............


&#60img height=400 src=http://photos.imageevent.com/kpoelzer/weddingphotos/photosbydawnpeake/websize/Pritchard%20Wed%200513.jpg>

and get this...........

<img height=400 src=http://photos.imageevent.com/kpoelzer/weddingphotos/photosbydawnpeake/websize/Pritchard%20Wed%200513.jpg>

The other dimension, not stated, follows in proportion, only state one.

The picture still is over in bytes, but the size is okay.

The picture I made up earlier today had to be redone in a photo edit program (I use mostly Microsoft's Digital Image Pro 9 and sometimes Adobe's Photo Elements 2) so as to make the bytes less than 35K.

Have I confused you??

 

[lilpritch04]

OK, I follow you on how to make it smaller, but unless I have a photo shop program, there is really no way I can adjust the bytes?? Is that correct?

What if I were just to grab the properties from the thumbnail image instead of the enlarged image (my photos are on shutterfly and imageevent) would that change the bytes or not?

If I use the thumbnail images, and if those comply with clipart rules & regs, how do I line them up horitontally??

Thanks, Dan!!!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Yes, you do need a photo edit program of some sort (you can actually get some basic free ones on the Net, others are pretty low cost, maybe $50, at Best Buy type stores, no need for expensive Photo Shop types).

You might be able to use thumbnails, though often they do not link correctly, and also most often are quite small.

As for several, just place an image in signature, hit space, do another.

If you want below, hit enter to go down a line.

ah...bien.
