I can see it fine, so we can take it as meaning anyone can view it if it is linked.

Part One - PicasaWeb

Find the picture you want.

I am using this photo as an example:

http://picasaweb.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/FieldLife/photo#5091452690074241218

Select the size (normally 800px) and c lick the 'Link to this Photo' button on the right.

Copy the contents of the box 'HTML to embed in website'.

It will look something like this:

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/FieldLife/photo#5091452690074241218"><img src="http://lh4.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/Rqh5PvaVCMI/AAAAAAAAAFk/fXkNGdl74g4/s800/...%20in%20the%20Field%201.jpg" /></a>

I have highlighted the bits you need to remove in red.

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/FieldLife/photo#5091452690074241218"><img src="http://lh4.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/Rqh5PvaVCMI/AAAAAAAAAFk/fXkNGdl74g4/s800/...%20in%20the%20Field%201.jpg" /></a>

This leaves you with just:

http://lh4.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/Rqh5PvaVCMI/AAAAAAAAAFk/fXkNGdl74g4/s800/...%20in%20the%20Field%201.jpg

Finally you add the image tags to be beginning and the end of that line without the spaces shown below.




Then everyone can see your picture.

EDIT: Can we have this and other guides to linking in images stickied?

Picasaweb is a pain to link images with, I'll just write up a little guide and be right back...

I'd go for a lovely set of primes, I'm considering skipping the zooms and going for a 1-4 prime set. Think I get better pictures and am more creative with primes.

Want a DA*55 and DA*200 and something about 20mm and something else, 100 macro I guess.

I'd love the Limited lenses too.

And I was dreading merging my 22 'slices' of DoF of a fly's eye taken under my K10D 'microscope'.

*shock*

Erm... You get the picture...

Really wish I could but, not going to happen for a while. I really need a flash and 3-4 food primes. I'm thinking about completely skipping the DA* zoom lenses as I take better pictures with my A28f2.8 and A50f1.7 (although I'd be happy with an A200f4 for now), I'd just love it if they had AF.

It is on my list of things to get, as with so many other things. Only problem will be what when I get the BG the camera won't fit in my bag very well. I guess that is what the movable dividers are for.

If anyone hates their BG2...

My K10D, but that is obvious and not what this thread is about.

I went to try the D-BG2 in Jessops and found that it makes the camera even more comfortable to hold in landscape orientation. Only problem is that the portrait grip is too narrow to be of much use and is not comfortable. It was more comfortable than holding the camera upright. But in portrait mode, my hand just fits so wonderfully. It was better than how my hand fitted on the K100D and that was very comfortable because of the deep finger groove.

I'm now thinking that I should have gotten it with my K10D. Ah well, never mind. I'll get it sometime in the future...

Erm, you want tack sharpness, which film doesn't have for a start. Complain about the AA filter when this is completely bypassed when shooting RAW and you can get exactly the image you want. A good RAW workflow tool like Silkypix or Lightroom is worth spending on (never tried the included Pentax one but it is Silkypix).

Printing is VERY different to viewing on screen. On screen you see a very limited resolution in squarevision mode. Printed on a good printer the blending that occurs (very nice on laser exposed photographic paper) means you don't get any jagged edges. The paper still has grain and produces wonderful images. Once you print you'll think the image on screen is rather pointless.

You won't find anything to equal the K10D in price, features and flexibility. I found it better than the D200 I tried. JPEGs I've seen from the D200 are actually worse than what I've seen from a K10 (seems to have bad compression).
