Lets launch the Shutterbug Studio with a fresh pic.
Last night's rain melted all the snow. It was barely above freezing today, 4 PM.

Andy great shot as usual!!!!
Sure wish we could get rid of the snow up here. Last night and today we now have over a ft. of new snow. Schools and senior centers closed for the day. Lots of drifting along with.
Nothing too exciting to snap pics of quite yet.

Maybe these should be asked in the front porch forum but here goes....
-I believe it is the galleries that have run GC out of room in the old site so what is the size limits of any Ning site Andy?
- I know Deb hopes to use this Garden Gallery site for picture storage as soon as she gets the other one built but are there size constraints in here for individual images? I ask because I am seeing some pretty large KB ones uploaded in the Main page gallery. (some are over 1000 KB in there I see)

RA...a lot of the regulars in Andy's daily Pics down size their pics before they UL them....using the Image Resizer from Power Toys

Now this is how to spend the winter!

GTO, I saw your rocks last night but was too tired to respond. Is there a meaning to the designs?
Sharon, we had thunder storms last night, lightning and torrential rain. Only the big old snow piles are left.
R A , there is no size limit for pics on Ning. I've seen 8 MB files here. I discourage large files to save space and it's an invitation for thieves to copy. Smaller, low res files work fine for the web. I even suggest everyone Sign their pics. Any photo editor with a Text tool can do it.
Tom, your cat has the right idea, lol.
Thing SPRING.

Click image to see full size. It will open in a new window. Note the web address once you click the image. You can copy & paste this address for posting on other web sites. Kiss PhotoBucket goodbye
These clickable Thumbnails are easy to do. I've added instructions as a comment to Debs Blog for New Members on the Main page.

Monty's in his bed here...
Andy the rocks are very heavy for their size....not sure of any meaning....

[Ruth Ann]

Thanks for the info Andy, that was my only concern about the larger sizes, them eating up Deb's space.

Now to go and figure out the thumbnails in this site.

I have found the" green+ add a photo button" for the front page adding photos, I do not see that here in a forum post, only to add as an attachment. I also can't see' ...... "~ browse ~ Options ~ tick both the 'Thumbnail' and the 'Popup window' boxes ~" you mention Andy.

A slight oversite on my part, lol
At the top of the Reply box is a tool bar with the "Add an Image" button, far right.

Testing

Yep, that got it for me Andy, thanks. I also had to change my screen resolution to see the bottom of the option window to reach the apply/add button.

Atta girl.
Start each pic on a new line to shift them to the left.
If you load more than one, do so in reverse order. The pic you want on top should be the last one loaded.
Beautiful Brugmansia.
