Thanks, Catriona. Shutterfly is the one I could not remember the name of. Y'all have given me great resources to go study. I'll let you know what I decide on, just in case someone is looking for the same thing.

I'm seeing the bike image, but i also see the text link above it in your post. Did you intend the text link or was it automatic?

I posted the text to show you what the text looked like that I was copying, and then I hit the img button above & posted that same text in.

So that option off to the right - link to the photo, and then copy what it says under embed after clicking image only is how to do it in picasa without logging out.

I didn't look at the page myself to see whether it posts, because oftentimes it just grabs the image from my internet cache and doesn't try to download it new.

I will definitely look into Adorama. I have some really nice photos that I want to print photo-quality and frame and hang on my walls.

When someone sets up a new account with AdoramaPix (which is FREE!) they get 25 free prints. Many people use these free 4x6s to order some prints on all the different paper types. We usually recommend that you print something that you have already seen in print, that way you can compare. The only paper type we don't offer in a 4x6 size is the Silk, but if you'd like to email me with your mailing address, I can pass it along and see that you get some samples.

Generally, the silk paper is very well suited for any kind of portraits, especially formal portraits like wedding shots. It delivers lovely skin tones and has a very delicate texture to it. It's more matte than our Lustre paper. The Kodak Endura Supra Lustre has a slight sheen to it, not as much as the Metallic or Glossy, but it's a good all around paper, a very fine surface texture and closest to "semi-gloss."
The Supra Matt(TM) might be a good choice also, nice rich blacks and good detail with no texture to the finish - it depends on your subject matter, and personal preference. Set up your account and order some prints for free and see for yourself.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there is anything else you need.

Holey instant, omniscient customer service, Batman!

Lol. I once complained about the quality of some prints I'd had made at adorama on fatwallet.com.... Then I got a PM from the director of adorama's photography service offering to reprint everything I didn't like for free. and wanting to know which photos weren't printing well so that he could fix that for the future.

While I knew they checked in on their feedback & comments on fatwallet, I didn't know that mentioning them on another forum would summon them from the depths of their printing presses to comment.

Ok, I'm doing a little test, I'll leave it up until tonight and then i'll delete this post....can you guys see both pictures below?:

Catriona's method:


and here the Picasa picture using the way I used to try doing it:

[Cataboo]

I love Picassa because it's so easy to upload the photos you want, only share what you want, and edit and print them all in one program.

[Fredwina]

I like, but I'll agree that getting on forums that won't accept HTML can be a bit of challenge.
Catornia, I didn't know you could that. thanks!

Alright, I'v been playing with this stuff.

You can tell picasa to upload the full sized images to the web gallery. Adorama has a button where you can tell it to print images from yoru picasa web gallery, your smug mug one, and your flickr one.


I installed the adorama button for picasa to upload images straight to adorama. And I must say it's absolutely horrible and giving me conniptions. Fix it.

*grr*

You can manually upload photos to picasa web from your browser without downloading picasa. Just go to picasaweb.google.com, log in with your gmail account if you have one, make one if you don't... and click the upload button.

Huh? All I did was right click on my image in my picasa account, "save image as" and then pasted the html in the image code for the forum. People said they were having a problem embedding images into their posts so I was just trying it out.
I don't have gmail, either.
