Check this out. Newbie pic

Pretty cool shot of some serious water-rock bump action!

I like it, the horizon needs to be straightened though.

can you tell me how to make this bigger??? I'm new to this(obviously) Thanks

Looks familiar. Where have I seen this recently?

You don't want it much bigger - you're at 700 pixels now and the guidelines limit you to 800 pixels. So, for all practical purposes, you're there now.

Since the guidelines also limit the file size to 100kB, the only way you can make it bigger and still stay under the 100kB is to use higher level of compression (lower quality number).

very cool

THANKS tjburns.

The sky color looks great!

the photo isn't showing now.

If you post to a host site like flickr or bytephoto or others you don't have to hold to the 100kb size just the 800 pixel on the longest edge. 100kb is only if you direct link to POTN.

look in thread tool < printable version< find attatchment #< open it. thats probly the long way but it worked for me.

I'm a Newbie... How do you post pics on here anyway?

OK it's showing up now. Very nice photo, well done.

That depends on what is most convenient for you.

If you have the means to host your pictures on some Web Server, then you can simply include a link to the picture in your message. There are two ways to do that - one is by using the "Insert Image" tool in the tool bar. The other is to simply type in the URL, as in http://blahblah.domain​/~me_oh_my/mypicture.j​pg

If you want to upload the image to POTN and have it hosted there, as you are composing your message, Go "Advanced" and use the Additional Options panel and the Manage Attachments button to browse for your image and upload it to be part of your message.

cool shot!
