Thanks.

It's supposed to be the full version. I will call them tomorrow and find out.

Thanks for the info, the program you mention looks good for my own use.

However I have to use Contribute as it is the Fire Dep't program. I am using the 30 day trial for now to see how I get along with it. Not so good so far.
If I can't resolve the Thumbnail issue they will have to continue making website changes with the Windows version at the office.
If it gets resolved then I will make changes from home and they will buy a S/N for me.

So far I have found no way to make a thumbnail open the full image on this program. One can only get help from Adobe with a purchase of the program.

Thanks again, RAG.

Argee,

Thanks for the info, but it's all a foreign language to me, I have no idea how to do that. Surely there must be some easy way to do it on the program.

Thank for trying to help,

RAG.

Need help please.

I am trying to publish 70 images on our Fire Dep't Website. Just got given the job as one of my Photographer duties (Makes sense) However this is my first attempt at a Website and becoming a total pain in the arse.

The program they use is Adobe Contribute/CS3 (it includes Bridge CS3)

Please advise how I create Thumbnails of images that open up to full size images with one click on the Thumbnail.

I have spent lots of time trying to do this to no avail. I can slide a Thumbnail into Contribute, or a larger image (Contribute auto cuts the size down to their usable requirement) with no problem. I don't know how to link the two images together.
Have actually published two large images on the main site window with no problem.

The lady that used to do it has the Windows Version. I have a 30 day trial for now and am using the Mac Version. I just plug in the password info and I am on the Website and able to change things.
This lady doesn't remember how she got the Thumbnails to open when she last put images on the site about 18 months ago (Yes, they want a big update)

FYI. I mainly use Photoshop CS2, Aperture and iPhoto.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, RAG.

Like I stated, I don't what this thread to go into yet another discussion about
the pro's and con's of the K20D or what is lacking on the K10D.
All I have to do is state what I asked and that's exactly where it will go.
I just have my own thoughts as to what I would like to see upgraded.

RG.

My point is. if you want to try and find out what is going on, email or phone Pentax yourself. I don't believe I have to go into details of what I asked in my email to Pentax. Plus I didn't want to turn this thread into yet another "why would you want that feature, or what about this feature thread"

I just got off the phone with a Pentax Tech Rep. I informed him I wasn't very happy with the email response regarding Firmware.

He told me he fully expects Pentax will issue the appropriate Firmware updates for the K10D right after they release Firmware for the K20D. Also informed me they intend to keep selling the K10D into at least next year.

I asked about rumors of a pro model DSLR coming out at the end of 08. It was obvious from his between the lines answer the new model is valid, however maybe not in 08. He intimated it will be well worth waiting for.

This Rep was very wiling to talk (as much as he could reveal) and a very nice guy, he suggested that instead of complaining about camera issues on Forums, we should all contact Pentax with some sensible feature requests and wanted Firmware upgrades. Pentax does listen to us, however they will not pay much attention to requests for top of the line Nikon/Canon features on a $1300 camera. They believe their camera's are already very much loaded with good stuff for the price.

Bottom line, sensibly tell Pentax what features you would like. Don't ask for the moon on their value loaded camera's. You may be surprised.

I just received the following response from Pentax Tech Support.

RG.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for contacting Pentax.

At this time, we will probably not be doing anymore firmware updates for the K10D. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

If you are in need of further assistance, please respond to this email or call our technical support center at 800-877-0155.

I must say I have been real lucky with all Sony audio equipment, it's about all I have ever used. I also have a Sony R1 that I just love.

As far as Minolta dumping their DSLR program, that's something I didn't understand at all. They had some great SLR's and were way ahead with many of the features on the 7D. Despite what some may state, it has a very pro feel to it, much more so than my K10.

Don't know that I like Sony Customer Service, or for that matter Pentax.
Guess a lot of it has to do with whom one gets to talk with. It's akin to eating out. A bad server can ruin any meal.

I purchased a 7D when it first came out, still have it. What a great camera.
Really built like a tank. If Minolta had stayed with it, I am pretty sure by now the upgrades would have made it right up there with the top Nikon and Canon models. Great pity they got out of the business.

The 7D can still hold it's own for image quality. I use it along with my K10 for all my Fire Dep't images.
