whats needed for pics

I want to start sending my pics but im not sure whats needed to getr them on the site, any thoughts would be appericiated.

 

well that answers most of my questions,I should ve asked are these pics coming from a camera,phone.scanner?

 

They can come from any of the items you listed, you just need to have the picture you want to send in your computer.
The picture can't be any larger than 500 pixels wide by 480 pixels high.

 

Is there a chip from a camera your suppose to use. to transfer from camera to comp...annnnd....could I just email one from my phone camera to my yahoo adress and get it on the sight like that?I know always wanting more...lol

 

Most camera phones take 640x480 pixels, a bit bigger than the 500 maximum Nick mentioned. You'd have to scale down to 500x375 to post them.

Of course if you popped big $$ for the phone or got it in the last few months you may have even higher resolution pictures.

Microsoft paint will let you change the resolution of the image. Select Attributes and change the width to 500 and the height to 375.

 

Most digital cameras come with software and cables to connect the camera to the computer.

A lot of the newer computers come with slots that allow the digital cameras memory card to fit in and the card then acts like another disc drive to the computer. You can also buy these items as an aftermarket add on to the computer via the usb port. This method is a lot faster in transfering the image to the computer and you don't use the cameras batteries up either.

You can also do the email route via your phone as you stated, but it's important to remember that this site has a limit on the image size that you can upload. If the picture is too big you will have to resize it before you can post, and most pictures have to be resized!
