POTM Winner? - Page 2

**fish_doc** · 08-22-2006, 07:32 PM

The current entries for each month can only be seen by the person that entered the picture. This keeps some suspense until the release of the winning photo.

i tried loading the picture through the url on photobucket but it just told me the same. if i change it to a gif file and try that it might work but will the quality suffer going from a 97k jpeg file down to a 48k gif file?

Hi Zoe, I understand what you were asking. Members dont vote on the POTM submissions in a poll, instead there is a panel of judges. You can submit your photos in one of the categories in the POTM section fo the forums.

Oh and Durbkat....
Now you know why people get fed up with you. If you feel as though you cannot answer a simple question civily, just ignore it. Save everyone else the constant arguments you seem to start with other members.

A general rule of thumb; gifs are used for illustrations, clip art, and images with large areas of flat color, jpgs are typically for photographs and images with continuos tones.
So in short you may lose some of the color of your photo due to the color limitations of gifs not because of the file size.

you can email it to me and then I can try and get it on my photobucket account then give you the link to it and see if it works. If you want to do it let me know and I'll pm you my email address.
