I've been wondering about this:
What's the fastest way to get your pictures from your camera to a website, em... lets say TCS for example...

From the time i take the photo i have to:
1. Transfer pix to computer.
2. Decide which pictures to resize.
3. Resize pictures.
4. Upload pictures to image station, which takes for ever... inspite of broadband
5. Link to TCS...

Does anyone have a mroe time efficient method?
For example does anyone know how i can resize my pix all at once?

Hey Suraya


I have a friend who wrote a perl script he uses in order to resize all of his pictures at once. I use 'The Gimp' to resize pictures, and I do all mine manually. My reason for doing them all manually is becuase then I can crop out dead space/etc. I'm a bit fussy.

If you resize your pictures to be under 33kb and I think the pixel size has to be under 400x400 you can attach your pictures instead of linking them, which might save you time if imagestation is really the problem with the uploading.

If I can think of any other ways to help, I'll post them for you.

If you're as fussy as I am, you probably want to manually edit your pictures as well.
