When I posted the links for Optimizing graphics, it was not my intention to drive anyone away from Amy’s Place.

My hope was that people would practice using the Optimizer Sites in the hopes of making The Place a pleasant experience for all.

Graphics are a large part of Amy’s Place and I LOVE Graphics.

If graphics continue to cause problems for many of our visitors, we will be left with 5 or 6 FReepers coming here on a daily or weekly basis. At that point, I will need to consider closing Amy’s Place again. I really do NOT want to do that.

Thank you.

Do those optimizer sites compress files as well as reduce them in size?

You can often compress a file to half the kbs it uses and lose just a little quality.

I can post examples if anyone is interested.

Howdy Amy. How was the FR picnic? Again, sorry we missed it, but we did have a great time at The Altamont Raceway.

SIL did some great driving and still holds onto 1st place in his Formula 4 division season point totals. One more race day on the 20th and the season will be over for his division.

I've been using ACDSee to optimize my pics before loading 'em up to Photobucket for hosting. Here's an example from Saturday's race - sil crossing the finish line - 2nd place in the second race of the day... car #23

Amy, please help me.

from what I see 95 % of the people have NO problem with the scenario.

How does that leave 5 or 6 posters.

Will the people who have a problem speak up?

When I did NOT have DSL/cable I DID NOT EXPECT the sties to change for ME.. I expected that I would have to moderate for them.. and did for 3 years with out one suggesting things needed to be altered to not offend me (sounds a little lib)

I also waited & missed a LOT at the Dose, the Finest, Pookies and other graphic intense sites. I did NOT blame others I recognized my own lack of ability.

We had 6 months of no problems.. what is the difference all of a sudden ????

forgive me for being maybe “bold” but MANY people left the Finest & are now leaving here over “controlling issues” .. I dont want to be one of them but really have a lot on my plate & wont post any pix to be scrutinized & criticized & I KNOW a lot of people fee this way
