Lot, Parking
Has anyone ever been to a parking lot? That is where they park cars. Sometimes 1 or 2 people will park, sometimes a lot more will park. If you park in one, make sure you are parking where there is no other car parking.Well, have ya? Huh? Have ya?
"Everyone remember where we parked." -- Captain James T. Kirk
what is this "parking lot" you speak of? your description invokes many feelings within me. it seems to be a wonderful and magical place I would surely love to see one day. i will seek the "parking lot", and i thank you for broadening my horizons beyond my wildest imaginings.
Most people don't know that the "parking lot" was named in remembrance of the biblical figure Lot, who barely escaped when his town was destroyed by God as punishment for the citizens' reprehensible driving habits.
:lol:
jamesdalphonse meets gannett!
Okay Ihave a question...how comes James was able to drop his punchline to the bottom of the post next to the picture? When I post pictures, I can wrap text around it, it just does text, followed by pictures.

His wife failed to park between the lines...

You attach pictures. He embeds links to pictures located elsewhere.
oh. Which is best to do? For the board I mean?
different tools for different situations.
Attaching an image means that it will be with the cellar for as long as the cellar is here. Pointing to an image hosted elsewhere carries no such connection.
Attaching an image means that the file resides where the cellar resides, and is a (small) storage burden on the cellar, while an external link is far far smaller.
Likewise for the bandwidth to bring the image to your screen. Attached images, cellar pays the freight. Linked images -- external host pays the freight.
Best... such a difficult concept.
Best is a state of mind.

have you ever been to a city?

Also FWIW, if you attach an image, there's no taking it back once the time limit for editing your post has expired. If you keep the picture on a host you control (and link to it), you can always delete it later.
Ahh. But of course you'd need a host..
Or a service like flickr, photobucket, smug mug, etc. etc. that will let you link in to a photo.
Is that what most of you are doing when you post pictures then?
For larger images or more than one in a post, I usually use my own hosting to host my pictures.
ooohhhh. I prolly aught to set up something then.
It's important to note though that hotlinking, unless it's from a site specifically designed for hosting, is very rude because it makes the original site pay for the bandwidth. Many don't allow it.

DanaC, just be aware. Here's an
example of a thread where I linked to photos through a Fotki account. I didn't realize that the account would be converted after a certain number of days. The files were moved and all the links broke. I spent hours setting up that thread. I haven't had time to find a new host, and I don't even know if the thread can be fixed.

Image shack is one of the better place for hosting your own. I use photobucket but my work filter will not let me see them or use it when at work. I can view Image shack pictures. Some of the others have used Flickr or PBase or one of the other sites that let you post complete albums. I don't know if that helps.
I've started using photobucket. I did try flickr initially but it's too rulesy. I also tried tinypics but couldn't figure their system out, they sue Photobucket so I followed a link and set up an account. So far, problem free.

Like I said before the biggest problem with photobucket is that a number of webservers block that site. So if you post a pic hosted from there on here, some will not be able to see it unless you look at it from a home computer.
