Hi All
Just wondering if any of you would like to help out with providing some shark or ray pictures for a elasmobranch picture database (you will of course be credited as the photographer!! :) ) . At present there are only a few pictures inside but if everyone helped out, it would provide a really good website for people to understand more about elasmobranchs...as well as ooh and ahh at your pictures!! :D

Thanks
Jeff

This is the website:

Here's an interesting picture of a stingray named "Notch" (a resident of Stingray City in Grand Cayman). He lost a pie-shaped "notch" from his leading edge to a boat propeller or shark.

You can see some more shark and ray pictures by clicking on my URL below and following the links to Grand Cayman, Australia, and Ft Lauderdale. Some of the pics are pretty nice, but the shark and ray photos aren't that great.
 
Looks like all my pics are bigger than 102400 bytes
Any tips on how i can get them on here?

Aquamore,

If necessary, you can resize your photos with any number of photo editing programs.

I have found that when I scan a standard size photo into JPEG format, it may be around 250K. If I open the same photo with Microsoft Image Composer and re-save it (no editing involved), it magically drops to around 45K (with no discernable loss in quality).
 
Ok guess that after a bit of experimenting with physical size I managed to upload the Ray pic

Thanks for the tip I'll try playing with my photo editor
