Reunion photos
I want to give a big thanks to everyone at the reunion - everyone did a lot of work, and sure made me feel welcome.
Brian and I didn't get too many photos, but the ones we got we decided to put up in a public place on the net, using a photo site called Flickr.
I created a group at Flickr, which, if you join the group, will allow you to also post your photos in the same place, thereby getting all the reunion photos together in one easy-to-find place.
I don't find Flickr particularly user friendly; there is a bit of a learning curve, but I did figure it out, and with a little time, you can too!
To see the photos that I posted in the group, go to
www.flickr.com/groups/smithkith
Click on the "See All 19 Photos" link to, well, see all 19 photos. To see the photos as a slideshow, click the "See as Slideshow" link in the upper right-hand corner.
To join the group and be able to post your photos here, you have to join Flickr (which is free), then go to the Smtih Kith group page (same link as above), click on Members, then click on "Join this group". After that, you can upload photos to your Flickr account, then go to the Organizer, Load all Photos, click on the Groups tab on the right, then drag the photos over to that tab. And voila - you have added to the Group Pool (Group Pool = all group photos).
This is a public group, which means that no invitation is necessary and anyone can join.
Once again, thank you all very much! It was great to meet you.

I loved the photos! Thanks for putting them out there.
What great photos! I will try to add some of mine to Flickr tomorrow. Thanks again for all you have done to help with all the techno-stuff!

OK, Tracy, I joined Flickr and even uploaded 7 or 8 photos. However, they seem to be on my own page instead of the Smith Kith Reunion group page.

I will keep trying, but right now I have to go pick Sheela up at the Rec Center, then she and I are going to play a little tennis! Lyn
FROM THE FLICKR FAQ PAGE....
Why don't my photos show up on the Everyone's Photos page?
When you sign up for Flickr, your new account is marked as 'pending', until Flickr administrators have reviewed it to make sure you aren't posting offensive images, or junk downloaded from the web. You have to have uploaded a few public photos before your account enters the queue, so if your photos aren't showing up, upload some more!
When your account is 'pending' your photos won't show up in public photo lists, like Everyone's Photos, or pages that show all photos tagged with a certain tag (e.g.).
It's great that you joined Flickr, and so quickly.
If you can see your photos on your page, then your account is fine.
Make sure you are signed into your account and go to www.flickr.com/groups/smithkith
that is our group page;
In the middle-right part of the screen, you should see a link called "members" - click there, and you will be given an option to join the group (no invitation or special permission required). Click Join, and Yes, I really want to join.
After that, go to your Organizer. Load all photos. And then, in a tab on the right-hand side, you should see "Groups". click that tab, and select your group (smithkith).
Finally, you can drag any photos for the group from your organizer over to the Smithkith group panel.
This will create a copy of the photos in the group, for all to see when they visit www.flickr.com/groups/smithkith
(Nothing is simple these days!).
You, go, David!!!!
