eve...to copy an image you have to...

(img src="place the url here")

replace ( with < and ) with > and don't forget the " "

I tried your image...and it didn't work..go figure????

-- Peg (peg@here.now), December 11, 2000.


Thanks, Peg and "image" --

Peg, I'll give it a shot...



-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 11, 2000.


Wow -- it woiked! Thanks so much, Peg!

In my first post, I wasn't yet trying to transfer the image, but that was gonna be my next step -- as soon as I'd learned how. Anyway, I'd like to tell you how much I enjoy and appreciate all the images you post on the fora -- it really adds a fresh dimension to things. I'm sure I haven't seen 'em all, but the moving, disappearing drink was especially memorable -- every time I lunged at the screen I just ended up with an empty glass or that ol' "white background" taste in my mouth...:)

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 11, 2000.


Thanks, eve. It's my way of expressing myself cause I can't say what I feel in words.

Funny thing...my browser can't bring up the image...I get the blank box with the x in it...go figure, again :)

-- Peg (peg@here.now), December 11, 2000.



Mine can't either, Peg. And when I paste the URL in the address area of my browser, the result is, "Access forbidden from external hosts." eve, perhaps the image source is on a non-public server. Send in the clown filled car. 8^)

-- David L (bumpkin@dnet.net), December 11, 2000.

Mornin' Dave and Peg...

Arggghhhh....now I'm on at a different site -- at home (the ol' "I'm in a blizzard" excuse...) -- and they're all coming up "X"s! I was at work yesterday -- big place, with a server. Yet, even there, Peg's didn't show up as anything -- as I recall. Dave -- I think you're on to something, though.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 12, 2000.


Well, NOW I just checked my link at home here...and it says, "Access forbidden for external hosts."

Can y'all see anything from the link? (It's a charcoal portrait of me, done recently.)

If anyone's reading this, could you tell me if, from the last two posts, you can view either, or both, of the images?

From my vantage point, the former post carries only a red "x" while the latter allows me to link up and view the image.

Thanks.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 14, 2000.


Hi eve,

The latter post took me to a Yahoo photos page that said the following: "You have reached a restricted area. Please return to Yahoo! Photos." It seems that one has to be a registered user on Yahoo! Photos even to just view photos there.

-- David L (bumpkin@dnet.net), December 14, 2000.


Hi Dave,

Thanks for responding. The first link on this thread was my link to a "jpg" file that I transferred the picture to (from Yahoo). Now when I try to link up to it, it has a restricted access message. Go figure. I guess I need to learn some more about this whole process.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 15, 2000.


Hi eve,
It may be that when you originally clicked on the first link in this thread, your PC still "remembered" the Yahoo!Photos page where the image was posted, hence it didn't try to fetch it by going "through the internet." (BTW, if you are eager for at least one of your forum friends to see the photo, I would be happy to receive it via email.)

-- David L (bumpkin@dnet.net), December 15, 2000.

Hi Dave,

Check your e-mail.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 15, 2000.



Testing again...

Maybe me...then again, maybe 'Access Denied'

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 15, 2000.


Now trying for another image transfer...

I'm really expecting this to just be yet another red "x" or eventually turn into one.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 15, 2000.


eve,

You're trying to paste something that won't allow external access...I don't think it will work.

You might try sending yourself an email with the url to see if it works (that's what I do sometimes).

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 15, 2000.


Behold!

-- David L (bumpkin@dnet.net), December 15, 2000.

And now it's gone! Oh well, at least I have the copy eve emailed me. Nyah nyah, Peg. 8^)

-- David L (bumpkin@dnet.net), December 15, 2000.

http://i13.yimg.com/13/5de8119e/h/5e8e0b6a/hpa0002.jpg

I tried emailing it to my self and it still said access restrictied...go figure!

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 16, 2000.


eve and Peg,
Since eve and I were able on some attempts, to access her Yahoo!Photos posting via its URL, I surmise that Yahoo!Photos has some kind of bug in their access security hardware/software. It would make no business sense for them to establish a login process, only to permit its bypass.

-- David L (bumpkin@dnet.net), December 16, 2000.

Eve, if you want to mail it to me at netty@graphic-designer.com I'd be happy to load it onto a free angelfire site and then paste it here.

-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 17, 2000.

Netsc@pe Peg and Dave, thanks so much for your efforts.

Netty and Peg -- check your e-mail.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 18, 2000.


Well, that didn't work for me.

Now my curiosity is really peaked...

...tapping sumer's foot...waiting

psst..don't tell sumer I have her foot again..lol

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 18, 2000.


Eve,

I went to your yahoo site but didn't see the picture. Maybe you can upload it again and just use the following link to your site so people can view it there:

http://profiles.yahoo.com /eve_rebekah

-- Just trying to help (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.


Just Trying,

Thanks for trying. It's in the "thumbnail" page section of my Yahoo Photos, but I couldn't upload it to either the profile page or the regular photo page -- I get the error message that it can't be accepted unless it's a "JPEG" ofr "GIF." This pic's a "JPG". So, what do I do now?

Anyway, given this, heck if I know why my "thumbnail" page accepted it.

Anyway, here's the thumbnail (or "Access Forbidden Yet Again, Nyaahhh, Nyaahhh, Nyaahhh, So Sue Us") page...

Link

Peg, Hey...lemme tell ya...right now, I'm so frustrated, if I had 'sumer's foot, I'd be chewin' the toenails...

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 18, 2000.


eve, I saw the picture from one of the links you posted -- it's absolutely stunning; incredibly beautiful.

Wow. What a genuine, warm smile.

-- Patricia (PatriciaS@lasvegas.com), December 18, 2000.


It worked!

Hey! What a babe!

(wolf whistle)

-- Just trying to help (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.


Inserting...



-- Just trying to help (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.

Man that's a big picture! :D

Eve: Yahoo! must have been experiencing some technical problems because now I can see three out of four of your earlier attempts to post your picture.

Very strange.

-- Just trying to help (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.


Oh, you guys are too kind! I had it done with no makeup or fancy stuff -- which is how I usually am anyway -- very natural look. Well, except when the kids and I get dressed up to watch our favorite holiday specials -- like the one coming up soon, "Strom Thurmond Remembers the Very First Christmas."

Really, though, thank you for the sweet compliments, and your help.

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 18, 2000.


Bah! Now none of the pictures are loading - including my own attempt.

I may try again later after work but for now I'll have to leave it alone.

P.S. If you are not finished with your friends foot then please pass me a toe.

-- Just trying to help (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.


Well, I'll be DAMNED...I still CAN'T SEE IT!!!

Went to your link and all the pics I clicked on ended up the box with the red x in them.

..stomping 'sumer's foot and whining...I wanna see the pic too..sniff, sniff

Hey it worked, thanks just trying to help!

eve,

You're one gook looking chick...sigh...beauty and brains, some women have all the luck ;)

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 18, 2000.


um...'gook' should be good...heh...don't know my left from my right (sheepish grin).

-- Peg (like@here.again), December 18, 2000.

Now I'm going to try to post it here...



-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 18, 2000.


Hi eve,

I just checked my mail box and didn't see it in there. (Could you have forgotten to send it?) I also checked this thread with a couple of browsers and anonymizers and got mixed results. I'm going to check to see how "im@g.e" and Peg posted theirs and if they did it from somewhere other than a Yahoo page. If not, maybe I can download it myself, post it at angelfire, and then repost it.

-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 18, 2000.


Yes, I see it. Good work, Peg. :)

-- Just trying to help (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.

Yeeeessssss....I can see it...can everyone else???

Will it stay???...or will eve forever be a disappearing act...LOL!

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 18, 2000.


Peg, I think the reason some can see it an some can it because it comes from an anonymized source. I just downloaded it to my D drive and I'm going to go upload it at angelfire now.

I'll be back later! :-D

-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 18, 2000.


Okie Dokie, here we go:

eve

You'll never be lost again...



-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 18, 2000.


Netsc@pe 6.0,

The image Peg posted here is not anonymized. I cropped Eve's photo and loaded it in to a Photopoint site I created today. Peg is linking from that source.

-- Trathca (Just trying to help) (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.


Ok, now I think I might know what's going on. I always post with an anonymizer (ok almost always) and I can't see those photos with the anonymizer on. When I look at the img src with the anonymizer on, it reads like this:

img src="http://invis.free.anonymizer.com/http://albums.photopoint.com/j/V iew? u=1406856&a=10515736&p=35708666&Sequence=0"

That's why I thought it was from an anonymized source. What the heck! At least there's a lot of pretty pictures of eve around!

-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 18, 2000.


Oy Vey!! What a wonderful outpouring of help and compliments! I'm really moved; even feel my eyes starting to tear up...thank you all SO much!

Trathca/Just trying, your link worked! Thanks for all your help and kind words. Stick around...I'd like to get to know ya better...

Peg, such sweet compliments from you. Thank you. Oh yes...before I came back here, thinking you were still having trouble seeing the pic, I e-mailed you one direct from the Yahoo photo site. Let me know if you got it.

Oh, and Patricia, I have to tell ya -- you just blew me away with your compliments! Are you SURE you were looking at the right pic? :)

Netty, I really did get that e-mail off to you -- at least it's registering that way in my "sent" file. I used "netty@graphic- designer.com". Your Angelfire link is showing up blank on my screen, with the "Angelfire" logo in the top left corner. I really appreciate your efforts, though.

I have to split soon, for another day or so. But know that the warmth of your kindness and caring shown here will abide with me for a long time to come...(smile now wider than the picture)

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 18, 2000.


Trathca,

Aaaahaaa...that's why the pic says photopoint.

You are the one that did a "good job" :)

eve,

I didn't get that second link you sent me...oh well, really doesn't matter anyhoo!

P.S.

If CD sees this pic expect a marriage proposal...LOL!

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 18, 2000.


Well, it looks like our work here is done. :)

Trathca/Just trying, your link worked! Thanks for all your help and kind words. Stick around...I'd like to get to know ya better...

Glad I could (after repeated attempts) help, Eve. I'll be here - or somewhere on one of these Greenspun forums. BTW my email address is: trathca@yahoo.com

Peg, I appreciate your linking to the Photopoint picture. I bollixed enough attempts so was happy to see someone get it right finally. :)

-- Trathca (Just trying to help) (hope@this.helps.xxx), December 18, 2000.


Trathca,

You made it easy for me :) Always glad to help out!

We hang out at this forum.

And like any place on the net...it is the net ;)

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net), December 18, 2000.


Thanks for the link, Peg.

After reading some of the posts there it looks like I'll need to bring an asbestos body suit! :)

-- Trath (trathca@yahooBLOCKED.com), December 18, 2000.


Peg, I'm sorry -- amidst all the commotion (a blisteringly fast-paced bunch of posts) I forgot to thank you for doing that link to Photopoint -- plus your other efforts. Thank you so much!

And Trath...oops -- I should have told ya where we hung out -- well, at least now ya know. Keep in mind there will be lots of opportunities to take that asbestos suit off and bask in the warmth that will envelop you there.

"See" y'all...and thanks again!

-- eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), December 19, 2000.


...tapping sumer's foot...waiting

psst..don't tell sumer I have her foot again..lol

-- Peg (pegmcleod@mediaone.net),

Ok, so nobody told, but you let go, right now...

and EVE....I am deeply humbled see, nobody has EVER wanted to chew my toenails before. eeewwww!!! LOL...

get back in here and show me how to do them purty pics peg.

-- sumer (shh@aol.coN), December 22, 2000.


Just testing italics this time. (and Hi, 'sumer...if you're still here, I hope you didn't lose your appetite with the foot thing)

Anyway...

Hopefully the following will be italicized (with one space before and after): Italics now ok...back to normal.

-- Eve (eve_rebekah@yahoo.com), March 15, 2001.

Just another thought you can set up a web site at www.geocities.com yahoo bought it out a while back (that was a bit of a mess) and set up a link to the file there with a text link like this
Click here to see me and my candidate

or

As a thumbnail like this


-- Sky (sky@skartdesigns.com), May 31, 2001.


doh!! sorry missed a forward slash the code

or a thumbnail like this


-- Sky (sky@skartdesigns.com), May 31, 2001.


oh well that should of worked last time i do something public without testing it first. Yahoo really doesn't like lending it's bandwith to other people.

BTW liked the photos of the dogsled. way cool

tcahf

sky

-- Sky (sky@skartdesigns.com), May 31, 2001.


another test while I'm here testing for the pre tag
this is the code for the thumbnail



-- Sky (sky@skartdesigns.com), May 31, 2001.

Hey, Sky! Thanks for your help -- sorry, but this is the first time in months I've checked in here, and I just now saw your posts.

Anyway, I arrived at a fine solution, if you're still there and interested.
