Amazing pictures!!!! you take them very well!!!!.if you don't take pictures for a living you should start! i have never seen so many beautiful creatures in one place!!!! thanks for taking the time to share!!!!!

[the_oracle]

Evermore,
Those are good words of encouragement........
Thanks for the motivational words, but right now, I have lots of things in hand..........studies, 4 kids to raise, work, and of course, my discus to take care...........
But anyway, not a bad idea though........
I'll pursue this when everything's settled...........
For now, just enjoy my pics, for free, that is.....................

Thanks for posting these awesome photos.

Was wondering if they could be made available in a zip file so I can keep them on my PC.

Dwayne

[the_oracle]

Geez Dwayne,
No idea bout that. Maybe the Mods could give a helping hand........
Try to pm them....................


Sanie.

[Merrilyn]

Proteus would be the man to talk to about that. He's our resident computer guru 8-)

[kkiu]

If the zip gets done, may I also have a copy? :)

It being hosted somewhere on the big intrawebby would be nice. Email isnt the place for big files.

Also, are they the orginal size of the photos? would love to get the full sized ones. The photography is just awesome!

Cheers,
Millard

[Mulisha]

Maybe sending the files through MSN could work then you can send 1mb pictures etc

HTH

:lol:

[the_oracle]

Where are you, Pro? Maybe you could help in this..............
I'm just a part-time photographer, that's is. :lol:
Maybe you could give a helping hand.............
Waiting for ya, mate.........

Sanie,

The picture files posted to this thread average in size between 80kB and 100kB. There appears to be about thirty of them. The 'zip' program I referred to is called WinZip and can be found at www.winzip.com. It's free and allows you to compress files into a single archive. The format of the files you've posted are .jpg and these are already relatively compressed so using WinZip will only marginally reduce the size of each file, however it consolidates them into one file which is easier for attaching to a reply message. Using a simple calc, if you ‘zipped’ the pictures you’ve posted in this thread, the zip file should be in the order of 3MB which is not big (these days).

If you’re prepared to give this a try I can help you outside this thread.

Dwayne
