Welcome to what we hope will be a vibrant community of volunteers sharing their techniques and ideas with each other in an effort to best restore priceless photos damaged by Hurricane Katrina.  Please pull up a chair and tell us a little about yourself and then particiapte in a growing list of forums dedicated to restoring memories for those affected by last year's storm.

Many thanks for setting up this board!

It's a wonderful place to meet, share and learn with all the volunteers for this wonderful organization.  Kudos for getting it started.

Thank You, thank you, thank you!!!  for setting up this forum.  I've been reluctant to share the images on RetouchPro, as I didn't know how the owners of the photos would feel.  I'm glad to see a site where I can post an image and get feedback from other volunteers on the same mission.

Hi mschonher...

The easiest way to post a picture is if it's already hosted on a server, either your own, or on a public image hosting service such as Photobucket.com.  From there, it's just making sure that there are what they call 'image tags' around the link to the picture.

post the link to your picture with [ IMG ] at the beginning and [ /IMG ] at the end (both without spaces) and your image should appear in the forums.

Currently attachments are also allowed in the forum; however I am reviewing the impact that has on the webhosting plan and may opt to deactivate that feature if it is causing usage overages on the current plan.

Is it possible to enforce a max image size of 100kb or less for the forums...?
