Hello, there are lots of very good online sites that are willing to post your images. I would like to offer my project and let you know that I would be delighted & honored to add them to the USGenweb Tombstone Photo project. Here's the url so you can see the site, it contains images representing hundreds of cemeteries from all over the state of Ohio: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/oh/tombpics/ Here's a link to a page which gives more specifics on size and other information needed to donate them: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/oh/tombpics/donate.htm If your images are 1mb or larger, you really should try to reduce them to somewhere in the neighborhood of 100kb more or less, try to reformat them to a size no wider than 450 pixels, if you plan to attach them to email. Since you have so many, if you have the ability to burn a cd, you can leave them at their current size and if you're willing to send a copy to me, I can place your images online. Regardless as to whether you send them to the Ohio Tombstone Photo project or one of the other sites that generously share this data for all family researchers, I'm sure there will be a lot of descendants that appreciate your kindness in sharing the photos of ancestral loved ones.

I'd like to make them available but don't know know what is currently available. I haven't run into many photos from Green Hill but has someone perhaps already taken some and just hasn't posted them yet? > > In any case I'd like guidance on how to trim them, in terms of whether to worry about grass around the smaller stones and what size to make them for posting and where people would suggest posting them? I know of a couple of sites which allow you to post gravestones, but don't know what people think about them. I do want to make sure they remain available and free. > > Since I just got back, and haven't had time to creating any listing yet, I can't tell anyone which ones I have, but if anyone want's to send a request, I'll try to get around to checking when I can. > > The photo are about 1 meg in size at present, so they can be blown up quite a bit. I have one program which makes it fairly simple to edit photos for use on a web site, but I don't want to spend a lot of time editing and then have to do it over because the photos I sent didn't match the rules for the site they were sent to; hence this request. > > > ==== OHLICKIN Mailing List ==== > visit: LICKING COUNTY GENEALOGY at: > http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohlickin/ > > ============================== > New!
