The pictures I took today can be viewed at the above link. Apologies to the tail enders as my batteries ran out half way through the second half.

These are low resolution copies, happy to supply full size copies on request.

Thanks, Booney. Lovely pics. I agree with sarah-flute; you did a good job capturing StuMac's glasses in mid-flight. biggrin.gif

Have now downloaded the pictures from my camera which "Photo Expert" (TAFKACE) took laugh.gif tongue.gif

I have digitally remastered some to take out superfluous backgrounds and in some cases brighten them up when the flash didn't reach. Just now have to work out how to get them up here!

Great pics Jane biggrin.gif Thanks for taking them CE.
jo.clarinet
Another good lot of photos! I was a bit startled to see the one with me leaning over to talk to Katyjay while Sarah is singing - I thought 'what on earth has happened to my face' - but on looking more closely, the scroll of my violin is just in the position where my profile would be. Crikey - it gave me a bit of a fright!! laugh.gif

Yes, they look good! There were a few not-so good ones (e.g. my finger getting in the way of one of the photos ( laugh.gif ), but apart from that, I did quite well!

I'm having a lot of trouble downloading Brian's pictures as I can't get them anything but giant sized, in spite of changing the size in photoshop. I'm just going to romove Andy-piano-flute giant-sized, posted in error as I thought I'd clicked the Preview button!


Suepea
Sorry, folks, but I seem to have spent most of today trying to get these photos on and I've run out of ideas of how to reduce the size.
sarah-flute
SuePea, the one you posted of Andrea and Jane came up at a reasonable size here, maybe your browser hadn't caught up with the fact you had changed the pic? (that sometimes happens)

It looked fine here, anyway, unless I'm completely confused and that was a different person's photo... huh.gif
katyjay
Sue, is it possible to save them in a smaller size when you download them from the camera? Perhaps that would be the way to work it.
nicki_flute
Is HTML allowed on the forums? If so you could reduce the size.
sbhoa
How do you put in the photos?

I downloaded them to photobucket first and then posted links. There might be other ways.
jo.clarinet
Can you remember what you did with the photos from the September concert? Because I seem to recall that you initially had trouble with them but then worked out what to do - and they were brilliant! Maybe you mention what you did to solve the problem on the 'It's getting closer' thread from back then?

It's not the same problem - I have downloaded from Photobucket successfully, but they appear - on my screen at least - to be absolutely huge. Andrea alone filled the screen and it's a fraction of the whole picture. I'm puzzled that sarah-flute has apparently see it at a reasonable size. I have reduced the size of the image in Photoshop, but it appears to make no difference to the size on the screen. I'll post just one of them again and see what happens.

It looks huge again to me.

Looks perfectly normal size here.

nicki_flute
That looks fine to me, doesn't fill up whole screen smile.gif
sarah-flute
And here. I think for some reason your browser is "remembering" the larger size even when you have changed the photo. Try refreshing a few times, or delete the cache and try again.

The width of that photo here is about the same as your section of writing:

"difference to the size on the screen. I'll post just"
nicki_flute
Maybe delete cookies?
katyjay
What happens if you close and re-open your browser? What happens if you shut down and restart your machine?

I'll post the others then. Fortunately there are only five altogether at the moment - the rest are on film and will be processed tomorrow. The width of the writing - and the photo - on my screen is such that I have to pull the green bar as far as possible to the right iand down in order to see the whole lot.

If you emailed them to me, then I could resize them on Paint Shop Pro


Photos now removed from this post - they will be on their way to you soon, Nicki.

I've tried that one - it makes no difference.

Don't know whether it is just me but those ones appear huge!

It wasn't just my computer, then. I suspect a problem with the Photoshop program as I know Brian has been having trouble with the originals coming up too big and being unable to change them. Now the mystery is why the one of Andrea and Jane was apparently viewed at normal size and the rest weren't. They were all altered to be smaller.

Back home now - an excellent day, really enjoyed it and it was nice to meet everyone again!!

Fab pictures everyone! I look forward to seeing more when they arrive. Husband didn't take any though. I particularly like Booney's first photo - the lectern really suits me wink.gif

Well most of the men were just too whimpish to get up and perform.

Good job StuMac, Booney and Kenm were there to represent the side, at least there were a few real men who were not too scared to do their stuff in front of an audience!

We'll work on a few clarinet pieces for the next one so that you can redress the balance smile.gif

Hi everyone, I've managed to empty my camera, and I would like to share the photos with you, but I don't know how to do it. Can anyone help.

The photos are on Kodak Easyshare, and I'm being asked for a URL. I don't know what this is or where I can get it from. If nobody can help, I will have to wait until someone who is computer literate comes to visit. smile.gif
Deborah
nannyjay, a URL is another name for a website address, so where are you being asked to enter a URL? If it's on this site, you'd need to enter the web address for your Easyshare site when you click on the "globe and chain" icon.

Alternately, just type the adress of your Easyshare site (e.g. http://www.kodakgallery.com/nannyjay/Egham) into a reply to this thread and tell us all to copy and paste it into our browser wink.gif

If it's a query with Easyshare itself I don't think I can help, but post away, someone around here may know.
sara smith
I'm not sure, but I think there may be some photos which I have missed out on. I've only seen the ones posted online. If you have some others stored on your computer could you send me a link please smile.gif

nannyjay
Thanks for your help Deborah. I am obvously not very clever, as I can't seem to do it. sad.gif If anyone would like to see the photos, please ask and I will email them to you - hopefully smile.gif
Suepea
Nannyjay, a lot of us use Photobucket to get our photos posted on to the Forums. If you click here there is an "idiot's guide" to using Photobucket, which is very clearly laid out. Hope it helps!
