How do I print an image
There are 2 choices
- If you have a printer, and want to print the picture at home, then when you click on a thumbnail, you see a bigger sized image. If you click on that, you get a very large image. This is the full data. You may right-click and select save image, or print image to print the picture.
- If you would like a copy of the photo, then click on the "add to basket" button. You will be guided through the process, but you have to pay for these copies. The service is fast and efficient, and the quality is very good.... enjoy!
- But please note, in order to use this service, you must have "cookies" enabled. There will be a setting in your preferences or options, often under security or privacy, marked enable cookies.
How come I can't see the movies
There are some images which are actually movies. They are in AVI format. In order to view them, it is likely that you have to download directX from
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/default.aspx?url=/windows/directx/downloads/default.htm
What does "show all images" do
If you click this button, then when you view a page, all the images will be shown in a large format.
You can go back to thumbnails by clicking "show as thumbnails".
How come the images for the categories are not my favourite ones
The image chosen is ALWAYS the image that has been viewed the most! So, it Is the most favoured one! If you like a different image, you need to look at it more often! This means that we don't (normally) control which image is shown, and the image may change.
I like the pictures so much, I'd like them on by desktop
Theres the easy way, and the hard way.
The easy way, right click on the picture you like, and select use image as desktop background... it's that easy.
The hard way... well, you could consider using a program such a winwall
and set it's Internet URL to http:/YOUR URL/photos?sample=1. Please don't set the update to more than once every 5 minutes!
You'll get a new photo on your desktop. The selection is random, though there is weight given to popular photos (see above), and recent photos.
Thats cool, but what if I want a slideshow, or a screensaver?
Well, winwall might work for you, but it didn't for me. However,
V Camshowdoes seem to work well.
You can download a version HERE that is pre-configured to work.
I'm on broadband, how come it's so slow?
Because we are cheap skates, and only pay for a limited bandwidth. You could send money to us, we might use it to make the bandwidth higher!
