Arts & Grafts

Oh yes Andrew you're a natural commentator!

Joking apart, it might be a good diea to have, somewhere on the site, a gallery of pictures of different sorts of graft even Intacs or C3R at different stages in recovery.

Probably best not in the Forum, but someplace.

Definately.....but I guess there will be a cost implication if we want the Site to host the pictures........but if its non-hosting than I guess it cant be that difficult.....just more things for John lol....bless him!

[Louise Pembroke]

Yes it would be good to have a seperate gallery of photos of grafts, hydrops, lens, all of it. Perhaps those with digital cameras might offer to take pictures of willing subjects at events/meetings too.

[Andrew MacLean]

The site would not need to be the host for the pictures. They could be stored remotely and have links posted. I think this is how Knight manages to do all those clever things, and Per even posted a picture of the Hemingway novel the old man and the sea.

Ask your surgeon/optometrist next time. Mine takes pictures through his microscope. Then he send them to me by e-mail. Very good idea to have a gallery. Perhaps the kind that let users add pictures themselves and then site admin ( John ) put them in the correct theme gallery. I see the forum accept images as web-links. Perhaps the best way ?

Oooh fantastic.

I will be doing some pics of mine on a fairly frequent basis, will probably just bung them into my blog as I intend to keep a diary as things progress.

Just need to remember to do the "before" shot in the next couple of weeks.



So suggestions for the self portrait technique would be good.

Excellent! I'm on the hunt for some pics for the revamped main site I'm working on (slowly) at the moment. I don't think that hosting them will be an issue, either.

Any photos by email to webmaster@keratoconus-group.org.uk will be very welcome. Please do tell me exactly what it's a picture of though, or captioning tens of photos could be prone to error!

I use a free system called http://www.photobucket.com to upload my pictures. It automatically gives the code links you can then just cut and paste the link into your post.

I beleive this means there is practically no extra space taken up on the host server.

[Andrew MacLean]

I use the Mac iDisc facility. Like Gareth I get the http and can add links with great ease.

Probelm is I don;t have any gruesome pictures of my eyes with or without sutures.
