Working With Photos


Special Offer: Free Professional Photo Gallery Website  CLICK HERE

     One of the easiest things you can do to spruce up your site, is to add a photo gallery.  This will personalize your site, and make it interesting to return to.  The best pictures are the ones you take yourself.  You don't have to be a professional photographer.  With digital imaging, you can take 50 photos of the same subject, just to get the one you like.

      I recommend to keep your photos to a 400x400 pixel size or smaller with a file size of 20,000kb or less.  This will let the page load faster for the viewer.  If you are putting several photos on the same page, I would recommend that you "compress" your photos and images.  These changes can be done with this FREE jpeg compression program here. (also a great free program download here).

     Some websites will host your photos and images free for use on other websites like Ebay, or free sites that don't allow image uploads.  You upload a photo or image, and they provide you with a link to that image. You use that link wherever you want to display the image.  The best image hosting sites can be found at:
