Whilst out and about yesterday, I spotted a clump of these trees in full bloom in reasonably early morning sun.

I think the large image looks a lot better then the smaller thumbnail.

Happy for any comments.

Russell - image comes up with an x, and if I go to google, the photo is forbidden :(

Bugger. :oops:

I guess that answers the question about Google Picasa ...

Being a newbie and just starting to get into posting images on the net are there any suggestions as to image hosting sites (and potential costs) ...

I will post the pictures elsewhere

Thanks.

Rusell, you may want to take a look at Zenfolio, Smugmug, or PBase for hosting services. They will all be on charging services, but worth the money overall.

Zenfolio link is down at my sig: if you need a discount code, just send me a PM.

Russell, I use Photobucket.com and it's free.

Thanks Phillip.

I have created an account with photobucket and uploaded my first pic. I will post the larger one soon, and link to it.

Good thing about photobucket is that directly under your photo there are 3 items, the URL, the TAG and the IMG.
I just highlight the IMG, right click, press copy and then paste it into a message here. Easy.
Oh, don't forget the maximum size allowed here is 800 pixels on the longest side.

I've been using flickr with dial up but now with broadband looking forward to doing a lot more.

How do the above host compare with flickrs pro a/c - about US$28/year for 2G month?

what one is best suited to the novice?

thanks
