I was just about ready to comment when you posted the last message. The file size you have been uploading are in the 1200 to 1400 KB size. That is very large. Great size if you were printing them all as 8 by 10" photos, but a big waste of bytes on a web site. My typical pic size has been about 120KB which is only 10% of your typical pic, and still larger than necessary to view the picture on the monitor.


Like I said before ... it would take a lot of time and effort to revise your gallery. First thing I'd suggest is changing the file size of the pics you take in your camera. Then sign up for some sites and upload new pics to that site and then they can easily be linked to your new posts.


Of course, you can always take the "Crash and Burn" route.

Just DELETE all of the photos in your gallery. In that case, all of your pictures that you have posted in many many threads would show up as little boxes with a red X in the middle ....



Then set up your gallery with multiple albums (the feature that was just reinstated .. click on my camera).

Now upload any new photos and old photos, but make sure they are sized down to something manageable for viewing on a monitor (I guess that is 75 to 100 kb).

You are the Goddess with 90K views. I only have 34K views.

Of course, maybe your rant on the photo sticky thread may get Brent thinking and somehow making the problem less of a problem for us photo nuts.
