Hi all, i'm a seventeen year old amateur Herpetologist from Lancashire. Just thought i'd try at getting myself known. I try to get down to Dorset twice each year for field work, and normally go out with Herpetological Conservation Trust wardens Chris or Neil. Already know David Bird who helps me out with my yearly field trips to Greece in June, through his valuable experience in this region of Europe. I mainly specialise in European reptiles, and do alot of captive work with European reptiles and amphibians at home, due to lack of areas in my area to find any reptiles.

How do i get JPEGS onto forum?, as i have many good photos of Lacerta agilis (Male & female) from Dorset, as well as Vipera berus mating, taken on my April trip. Don't have digital camera, but i use "Dynax 4" 28-80mm camera, takes great photos, but lose bit of quality when scanning them onto PC via printer.

Cheers,

Hi Matt, welcome to RAUK

Putting up JPEGs is fairly straight forward.

Firstly you need the pictures mounted on the web, you can do this from any host site that you can upload pictures to. If you do not have such a site, mail the pictures to me direct and I'll set up a folder on the RAUK server and send you the URL's.

Next you need the exact URL (web address) of where the picture is stored, click on this icon  at the top of the post reply box and enter the URL, then click on OK.

The picture should display BEFORE you submit the posting, if it doesn't it won't display in the forum.

as an example, the banner at the top of the page is at:

http://www.gjscenics.co.uk/forum/forum/forum_images/forumbanner1.gif

typing this into the script prompt that opens when you click the tree icon gives,

 

If you need anymore help just let me know.
