Another Mac pic query?

[woodbloke]

I've just scanned in an old pic and can see it in IPhoto, so no problem. I then go onto PBucket and try to upload it. I can see it there but when I click on the pic to make it 'live' ready to upload, nothing happens, it's dead. All the other pics in the albums are OK, it's just this one pic. I'm doing something slightly wrong...but what? - Rob

There may be another way but the thing I found that works for me is to locate the image in Finder and copy it to Documents or the Desktop. Then I can get it to load from there into my online photo album.

What trype of file is it because you can only load certain types to Photbucket. JPEGS are one type but I can't remember the others.

If you go to Finder and have a look at Today file in the left coloumb, click on it and you should see your photo file in there. Go to your Photobucket and select download then go to Today, as above, double click on you scan file and if it is one of the accepted file types it should download.

2nd 1/2 of Ireland/Wales gota go!!

That Today and Yesterday 'folders' are damn useful

'Today, Yesterday and Last Week' smart folders aren't in OSX 10.7 Lion, btw - at least not by default...

Easiest alternative way is probably via the PhotoBucket iPhoto Exporter plugin - here. You can do it through the web-based uploader but it's best to export the files from iPhoto first; you can access the original files from the Finder at "Yourusername">Pictures>iPhotoLibrary, then right-click & "show package contents" but you need to be very careful not to change the file structure at all as this could muck up your iPhoto Albums. Hence the proliferation of iPhoto Exporter Plugins...

That seems to be a bit of a backward step to drop Today, etc.

I very rarely use iPhoto I have to admit.

I don't think 'twere a JPEFG file if memory serves...that's probably the reason why - Rob

That sounds to me like another god reason to give Lion a miss!
