There are some nice photos in there... What camera do you use?

[jonwoad]

Thanks :D

I got a Canon 350D with battery grip plus some lenses, nothing special.

Interesting gallery theme. I like window displays for 770x410 pixels but a separate image URL shows a top left and left white margin space. My fullscreen demo for PC and set top box users. PC users press F11 to increase screen height. F11 resets it. http://urlcut.com/jennifersjpgs

Fantasy Art galleries webpages can be customised to point to your webhost's pictures if it allows direct access to images. I upload using Core FTP to either the freeola.net or supanet.com websites. Freeola offers unlimited webspace. The click-a-pic slideshow style accesses the next webpage and its image. Click Michael Bridges Gallery links to load up the thumbnail images. Click the first thumbnail image so the fullscreen webpage and image load up. NB images were edited, enhanced and saved at 80% jpg quality to help them load quickly.

The Michael Bridges webpages have links to http://www.slide.com for jazzy slideshows. He sells his art on Ebay and gave me permission to showcase his paintings. Other artists shared their work on copyright free CD-ROMS I got from Ebay. If you like these, grant me copyright permission to create your galleries and host them on my site... or customise the webpages and host images on your sites.

If I was to do my own gallery it would be better than that, I only use it cause its free and its quick and easy to upload things to.

If I had time I would do my own website but it's all at a premium at the moment :(

This is interesting as a gallery theme but I don't like presentation display layouts that don't fit a specific Internet Explorer style window area eg about 770x410 pixels. I also don't like the way a separate image URL presents the image but with a top left and left white margin space. For these reasons, I set up this demo which should work for PC and set top box users. PC users can press the F11 key to increase the screen height and F11 to reset it back to normal when finished.

The Fantasy Art galleries are just demos but the webpages themselves can be customised to point to your webhosting storage for your pictures providing the webhost permits direct access to images, as some don't permit this. I upload using Core FTP to either the freeola.net websites or to the supanet.com websites. Freeola offers unlimited webspace.

Click on the Michael Bridges Gallery links to load up the table of thumbnail images. These were uploaded, too. Click the first thumbnail images so the fullscreen webpage and its image loads up. These have been edited and enhanced then compressed to 80% jpg quality so they should load quickly even for set top box users and those on slow dialup access.

These slideshows are based on a click-a-pic style to access the next webpage and its image.

IF YOU LIKE THIS FULLSCREEN PRESENTATION, then you could grant me copyright permission to create gallery demos for you and host them on my website for you. Obviously you could then customise the webpages and host the images on your websites at a later time. Failing full approval for the demo, I will create just 2 images and their webpages based on your existing image URLs just for your reference to help you assess whether there is potential in it for you or not.

On the Michael Bridges webpages you'll see links to http://www.slide.com as they provide jazzy slideshows you might like to test, too. Michael Bridges sells his artwork on Ebay so I bought some and helped promote his artwork after he gave me permission to showcase his talents online.

Other artists were sharing their work on copyright free CD-ROMS I got from Ebay.

Visit the galleries and imagine what the images look like on a 28" TV screen at home...

I will provide 2 demo click-a-pic webpages for you soon...

For Demo Purposes Only, copyright belongs to the original photographer, all rights reserved is the sort of message that can be displayed using the ALT tag in the html webpages...

http://www.fantasyart.ukartists.com/jw01.html

Click when the image loads and remember PC users can try the F11 key to increase the screen height for these demos...

Click image so it loads the second demo webpage and its image:

http://www.fantasyart.ukartists.com/jw02.html

Click this new image and it links to your first photo gallery.

Do you wish me to create the rest of these images as photo gallery demos and to store these as "copyright-permission-granted" images on my website?

If not, I'll delete the originals from my website and ask you to check out the http://www.slide.com website to see if that can help promote your photos online.

By using websites like these to host your images you also permit them to use your images to be sent by email and to let others buy copies of your images and for extra products. If that's what you want then you've already lost some measure of control on who uses your images...


that sounds awfully complex to simply allow a fullscreen clickable see the next pic format?! am I missing something? :redface::P

[jonwoad]

tbh those demos you did dont stop people from saving the pictures anyway so theres very little difference... or did I miss something too...

[coiler]

i don't even see watermarks on there, which can be mass photoshopped on and used with any pic sharing site.

[jonwoad]

if you check my original post... I've now added a copyright, disabled right clicking, and disabled email sending, and disabled access to the original file so I'm happy with what I've got.

Thanks anyway

[Aaron]

Thanks :D

I got a Canon 350D with battery grip plus some lenses, nothing special.I quite like the 350D actually! Definitely good for the price! :)

[coiler]

rightclicking doesn't matter as you could PRINTSCRN then paste into paint etc.

I suppose the jonwoad bit that should be enough anyhow!

[jonwoad]

the only surefire way to get round it is to never put anything on the internet in the first place :(

[jonwoad]

I love the 350D... I was meaning the lenses are nothing special lol

[coiler]

i would feel privileged if someone wanted to use my pics, as long as I got credit wouldn't be bothered about £££

[jonwoad]

indeed, same here :)

of course it would be different if it was my living

[Aaron]

I love the 350D... I was meaning the lenses are nothing special lol
