No political pictures on the upload, please

I just don't have room for that kind of thing.

Fishing, and for sale items on the picture upload only.. OK?

Thanks,
Jen

ah errrr,, what about a fishing politician?

Jennie@ifish · 03-26-2003, 03:28 PM

I'll hold a meeting tonight, and we'll debate the fishin politician... NOT! :smile:

I just have to draw a line somewhere.

And can we color on the right side of the line or just the left? :grin: :grin:

Jennie@ifish · 03-26-2003, 05:55 PM

It depends on how expensive my color crayons are.

Most public domain pictures can be included by doing a right click when you find them on another site, copying the address and then using that address in the "Image" dialog box. That way, the file isn't on the Ifish server. However, please also note TFG's warning, below.

There is an ethical question to doing it this way, as you are technically stealing that other person's bandwidth each time someone views the thread that has that image in it.

Also, if the webmaster notices the bandwidth theft they can easily replace that picture on their server with one a lot less, erm, nice, and then just change their website so that it uses the correct image at the new location.

I've seen it done before, and have even done it once myself. It's good for a laugh when they have that replaced picture come up on their site..

Let's not forget, however.... that Jennie can pull the same trick! :smile:

Great idea, FG, thanks!

Just go to Star Photo and create a free account and start uploading pictures. You can post your pictures by right clicking on the enlarged photo and copying the url once it's uploaded to your star acct.
