Do the online photo websites serve as a backup for your digital photos?

Question by mark: Do the online photo websites serve as a backup for your digital photos?
Just curious that if you uploaded all your pictures to an online website (like photobucket) and then you had a fire in your home and lost the backups to your photos that you uploaded. Could you retrieve copies from your uploaded files? (like download all 3000 pictures on the website back down to my computer). Do photo websites allow that?

No way, I only ever put low res photographs on line with a signature.

I store mine on multiple hard drives, its the only safe way.

Q&A: How do I convert image file from pdf to jpg?

Question by Ashley: How do I convert image file from pdf to jpg?
I have a pdf image file that I want to upload to facebook but I can only upload jpg files to facebook. That’s why I need to convert image file from pdf to jpg.

Best answer:

Answer by Happy Husband
There’s a lot of software that will do that conversion for you. The full version of Adobe Acrobat for one. There’s probably some freeware too if you do a search. Be wary of freeware in general since it’s prone to containing malware.

Worst case scenario though if you need to do it quick and dirty without installing new software, then do the following:
1) Open the pdf file using Adobe Reader.
2) Maximize the size of the image that you’re interested in so it fills up your screen by using the zoom in and out feature in Adobe Reader.
3) Press both the Ctrl + Print Scr buttons at the same time (I usually press and hold Ctrl first). This will copy an image of the open Adobe Reader window to the clipboard (or whatever window happened to be active because you clicked in it last).
4) Next open Windows Paint (In WinXP: Start | All Programs | Accessories | Paint).
5) Now use either Ctrl + V or Edit | Paste from the menu at the top of Windows Paint and you’ll have pasted the entire image of the Adobe Reader window in.
6) Use the dashed star-like button on the left and the dashed rectangle button beside it to whittle things down to just what you need.
7) Then save the file in jpg format (File | Save As | | ).

Question by : How to make an image file smaller without resizing?
I’m making GIFs from videos using Photoshop CS5 and in order to upload this GIF to the site I want to upload it to, it has to be 500K or lower. If I resize this GIF anymore it’s going to be too small and the colors are almost terrible. Is there another way to resize a file without resizing the image or lowering the quality? Or another program that will make good quality GIFs without making the file too big? Any help is appreciated!

Try photos saved under a creative commons licence. Images that the copyright holders don’t mind you re-using, for free.

(If you use a flickr link, click on an image that seems suitable to take to the photo’s page and then click on the “All sizes” tab above the picture.
At the bottom of this new, large image is the licence for reuse.)

Question by Henry J: What is the best image file format to use in microsoft office 2003?
I have a corporate logo that needs to be represented in 100% color accuracy.

the original file is both an eps and an adobe illustrator vector image.

What file type should be used in microsoft word documents?

I am afraid of using higher res tiffs for their file size (but great color accuracy).

I am afraid of using jpegs and gifs for their inaccurate colors.

What is the proper format?

Answer by toffo3619
You should be able to get away with a gif, but if you’re not happy with gifs then try a png format.

Just thinking, you should be able to us the eps file.

Download this free tool, it’s has ahandy conversion option. Click File and then select Batch Conversion/ rename.

Convert the orginal eps to a few differnt formats, play around with it to see which is best for you.

What photo stock company also offers video ‘sales’?

Question by holacarinados: What photo stock company also offers video ‘sales’?
I have a few videos that I think would be good ‘stock’ videos. I saw that fotolia accepts video uploads but only up to one minute (mine are 90 sec to 4 minutes) , and when I spoke to them, they didn’t seem to optimistic about their video dept. Are there any other photo stock companies where you can submit videos, and if accepted, can be offered for sale like stock photos? If not, is there another way to ‘rent’ or ‘lease’ or sell your videos?

Best answer:

Answer by mvr r
I like Shutterstock. As a submitter, you are required to submit samples before they accept your videos but once you are in, you can do pretty good in sales. If you want to make even more in sales, you can isolate the audio in your video, produce marketable sound bites and sell audio files as well.
