yeah i do agree with you on that but I think you still have to be patient and I am sure you will receive more constructive criticism the more photos you post

Meh, I guess ^^ I've considered joining some more serious photo forum to "cheat on" To upload those great shots you make like once-in-a-very-great-while xD And get criticism on those :] It's often those that blind you from the truth the most.

I've noticed this in photobucket too, haha. I might have to give the good ol' photo shop re-sizing a try later.

How do you do it?

How do I resize my photos? Well I just open those I found worth uploading in the photoshop, one at the time, and use the change image size function.
How about you? Well I do remember you used to use a quite simple but useful program to resize your pics but I don't remember the name of it. Are you still using it? lol I hope I am not asking too much.






I am actually a member of one of those serious photography forums but personally I think some of the members in there are just too serious and hardcore lol
It's kinda hard to have a casual and fun conversations with most of them probably because many of them are much older than me lol but you can always try to join one maybe you will find those serious photography forums a fun place to discuss. I usually just read the posts and occasionally post photos and ask for advice and there are actually some helpful people in there who could give you some useful advice. The site I am a member of is thephotoforum.com and I have noticed that it has become quite large too with several thousand members.

Yeah... I really do love our little photography section though It's nice knowing that there only are 10-15 people that post here consistently

lol you know this place used to be really dead with only like 4 people regularly posting in here and another 4-5 who post here from time to time but lately it seems several people have discovered this sub-forum, you included and it's nice to get to know some new people and talk about whatever that comes across our minds . It's Christmas holiday now and I am sure some people don't get online here often because they have better things to do so I hope after new year more people will start posting here again and I will hopefully be able to post some new photos too

when are you thinking of getting ur new cam m8? and have u decided between the 40/50d or somthing else?

Yeah It's nice to get off-topic though! I mean it's not like we get TOO off topic and it's in a very mature way so to say lol.

haha yeah and e-rage is quite rare in this subforum


As soon as I get my next paycheck I will be getting a camera and right now I am thinking about to get a EOS 40D again course I don't want to pay more than 400 dollars more for 50D which doesn't seem to be much better at least when it comes to image quality and ISO performance. But who knows I may will change my mind once I am inside the camera store . I will probably get a camera backpack too that is if they have the kind I want at reasonable price. lol

Haha - that's why I'm always here, too.

There are a lot of other people on the "more serious" photo forum, and to be honest, it almost feels that I don't belong there, unless I have a "once-in-a-blue-moon" shot, lol. Meaning, an actual decent picture.

Just to warn ya, they are pretty serious, even tho it's just a hobby for most of them.
