The phot isn't in a wide format if you have a 21inch monitor mate.

The camera is a mates canon digital SLR. Mine is only a humble old camera that uses the old film stuff. I would buy a new camera, but all my money goes into growing the coral in those pics. And the other corals and fish. I would post some tank shots, but I am afraid of Julians reaction.

I thought you'd need a good SLR to get those kind of photos!

I've got a Nikon SLR Digital and since I bought it I stopped using the old film SLR!!

I'll put up a photo or two up in the furnishing soon :D

They would be even better if I didn't have to shrink them down so much. Might be a bit much to ask to have 3-6 meg pics on here though. Dial up users would hate me.

Serious comment, that is beautiful. I don't want to attempt to estimate the $$$$$$$$$ you must have invested in your aquariums. And your lady wants Labs............C..R..A..S..H!!> sob! :shock:

Mate, it costs about $100 a quarter. Of course that is just for electricity. The other costs including emotional are far more. Not to mention, moving the bloody thing each time I move.

I use photoshop to play with the full sized images but when I send photos via email I shrink in photoshop then open in photo editor and save. The files are much smaller without much loss of quality between the two.

I just let photbucket shrink them. Not the best way to do it, but definately the laziest.

Here is one of my fish. We call hi Jagger because he is pale, and has big lips. This feels like show and tell.

No put it away Julian!

Hi guys,

Just a note regarding file sizes of attached images.

Whilst is doesn't affect the peformance of the forum, large images take a while to download especially for members who are on dialup (and there are still many on dialup connections).

As a rule of thumb we don't recommend posting images larger than 100k on the forums but we'll give an exception to this thread as we need good quality art to hang on the walls of The Lounge :wink:

Those who don't have a means to hosting an image or two, we'll be happy to host them as long as the images are their own and not copied from somewhere else.

Send me an email with the image and we'll send you back the IMG tag to post on the forum.
