About time I said Hello

geoffd70 · 04-04-2006, 13:33

Hi everyone - I have been lurking around for a little while now, thought it was about time I spoke up. I'm 60 years old always been interested in taking pics, bought a D70 a year or so ago and it has perked up my interest in photography. Still got my old Olympus OM2n. I've been gob-smacked at some of the fine picture taking from you people - they put my efforts to shame, however I learn something every time I visit. One day I'll get it right. took a couple of reasonable pics on Sunday and would like to share them with you but I don't know how, can you point me to the right part of the site for How to? - do it.

Thanks a lot
Geoff

Hello Geoff

If you would like some free gallery space here, just send a Private message to Matty and he will arrange it for you. After that you can upload a few pictures to it and then post a link so that we can all have a look.

Welcome to the forums

Thanks Steve

No problem, once the gallery space is sorted for you we can go into more detail and guide you through the process to display the photos in your posts. Its quite simple really and you will soon get the hang of it

geoffd70 · 04-04-2006, 13:50

Quite simple eh! You wait and see!

Hi there Geoff, once you find your way around its fairly idiot proof, trust me I'm always getting into trouble for getting it wrong

, but there's always someone who's knows a little or a lot about something, so your very well covered should you need any help.
