FWIW, GIF images are compressed BMP...

So for quality and size (these 3 anyways), it goes

1: BMP
2: GIF
3: JPG

OK, I wanted to re-visit this issue again and I see what you are saying Win, and I believe we are both correct if that is possible because it would all depend on how you saved the pic and what elements you used when you set up the save, such as DITHERING...However, if you take a closer look at my two screen shots above you can see the GIF image has been forced to employ DITHERING because it didn't have enough colors nor did it have the correct colors available in the GIF 256 color palette....

Notice the fly on the left is GIF at 32 colors and 2.69kb and the fly on the right is 17 million colors JPG 6.64kb

Amazing changes! It will take me a while to get up to speed on all these new things but i'm really looking forward to it. Kudos!

Does anyone know if friends can see photo's that I've published or do they have to be contacts?

I have a daughter, no son yet - maybe next year...

That's what worries me!
Even though I'm home on paternity leave, I don't even have enough time to read all of the forum, let alone start networking!
I would love to, but there aren't enough hours in the day - if I tried to cram that in as well I probably wouldn't have time to do any gambling, let alone change a few nappies!
(UK nappies = USA Diapers)

So I'll apologise in advance to those trying to network with me - I will get there but it may be a little while yet...

Don't feel bad, hon. I just this morning realized that the little doo-hickey beside our username in posts (the little spade icon) is grayed out when a member is offline and 'lit' when we're in the forum.

I think it because I should go to bed but.
Can you tell me how to Upload Pics from Photobucket in the album.
Thanks

See, the thing of it is, anything on a website is limited to 75dpi (browser constraints, I believe). You'll only notice the difference when you're looking at it on your computer...

I see that several members have created albums. But I did only find them by changing the albumID in the url and trying from 1,2,3..... etc. The other way is to click a member and then see if he has an album. None of these methods are optimal.

What I would like is a list of albums. In the list you should be able to see the owner of the album and the album title.

I'll check to see if there is a plugin for this.
