Beautiful Tamworths. Know I shouldn't really ask here, but would love to know how to upload a photo as you have done which comes out nice and big when you view it. Hoping SallyinNorth will be on soon as she seems to know how to do these things. Tamsaddle

i have no idea, the big photos come off my mobile...the small ones come off my camera....nothing is deliberate... :-[ :D lol

Thanks for vote of confidence, TS, but I haven't fathomed the niceties of making it one size or another - the only thing I have discovered (I think - Dan'll correct me if I have this wrong) is that if you view your own post after you've uploaded the pic, and click on the wee pic to make it large, it seems then to be large for other viewers also.
Uploading itself is here:
http://www.accidentalsmallholder.net/forum/index.php?topic=18691.0 (http://www.accidentalsmallholder.net/forum/index.php?topic=18691.0)
I use Windows Picture Manager, Edit Pictures, Compress, Wep page - which makes a small pic that enlarges when you click on it in the post.
Clear as mud. ::)

I will try this next time I have a photo to upload - thanks. Tamsaddle

The way I do them is ...
Transfer the photo to your PC / Laptop whether by email or direct transfer.
I then use Photo Bucket .. the account is free, see http://photobucket.com/ (http://photobucket.com/)
Having created an account click on the UPLOAD button
Then 'Select Photos and Videos'
Navigate to the photo you wish to upload on your PC and select it.
Then ... Save and continue to my album
Click on the photo you have uploaded and it will be displayed
Left mouse click in the IMG Code and it will say COPIED
In your TAS post just PASTE and the IMG Code will be pasted and when you Preview your post the image will (should) appear.

sarah dodds at yearle.
interesting the amount of hair in outdoor scottish pigs and indoor english ones of the same age and same parentage. these ones will have to toughen up quick...lol...cos my homebreds are real hairy hogs. they are great pigs though! im so chuffed.
:thumbsup:

i was wondering who had the dreamboy as Scottish Tamworth's all seam to be dreamboy after we brought him up and now dreamboy is in decline :farmer:
-
sarah has yorkshireman, but i think horatio is by AI. i dont know who has the dreamboy boar.
he'l be up for stud in a year or two, i expect when hes big enough, if u want a wee shot.
anything apart from royal standard is good for us as wev ai-ed a bit with R/S, as have alot of people i expect.
dreamboy...lol...sounds like a chippendale ...lol
;D :wave:
-
the Irish seamen is i think dreamboy no i wont be getting any body's boar Alice is on her last chance or her line will be even rarer ;) :farmer: that is the way the crumble cookies :farmer:

They remind me, just a little of Charles and Camilla on a Royal Walkabout in The early days. I think it is Horatio's eyebrows and the somewhat coy distance apart!
But don't get me wrong - they look gorgeous! :D
Hope you'll all be very happy together :bouquet:

Sadly Deerpark's Dreamboy won't perform to order and they've retired him. They've now only got the Royal Standard they've had for years, and a Yorkshireman, but are intending to get another Dreamboy working when he is mature enough. Great pity - our first Tamworth litter with Dreamboy were gorgeous. Tamsaddle
