Thread Name: Is the photo section now defunct?
Subject: RE: Is the photo section now defunct?
I also noticed Joe had his massages in order and thought it was because some kind mudelf was looking after him for all the work he does; he was certainly quick off the mark and effective with a little problem I sent him.
Some people have different requirements and thus definitions regarding privacy but it seems to me (with my very limited knowledge of server technology) that it might be possible to set up the Mudcat personal page so that it contained a link to a server where the photos could go and have the server set up so that the Mudcat personal page link was the only one (apart from sysops) that could access the piccies.
When I retire (in about ten years or so) I might have accumulated the expertise to go with the spare time required to volunteer, but the twisted copper pairs and summer lightning strikes might make any offers from me problematic if involving hardware.
At the Res School I taught at just after Easter, one of the students revealed that she ran a software business that she intended using to finance her studies. She took lots of piccies, some of which were required by other students in her group, so she displayed them on a web page which seems to deal with access to photos rather well. The website is at http://www.sherwood.photosite.com if anyone wants to check it out. Sorry about my inability to do hotlinks. And yes, I do appear but I think even my mother wouldn't be able to pick me out.
