Jim,

Found this link http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/p...bsp;  like I said I don't have powerpoint on my computer so I have no way of knowing if it works and what kind of quality, or size a pdf file would look like.

 

Take care see you soon

Dave,

I know you can upload a link from another web site that's PDF format ,  the campground layout map link I posted on the meet topic page 2??? or 3?? is a PDF..

Don't have a clue if it will work from a home computer.

Pete...

 

I took a look around the Photobucket site and found this...

 

Photobucket files supported...

 

http://photobucket.com/faq?catID=29&catSelected=f&topicID=322

 

Images - gif, jpg, jpeg, png, bmp. Photobucket converts bmp files, which are not appropriate for the Internet, to jpg files, which are.

 

Note: The Image Editor does not retain the animation in animated .gif files.

 

Videos - 3g2, 3gp, 3gp2, 3gpp, 3p, asf, avi, divx, dv, dvx, flv, gif, moov, mov, mp4, mpeg4, mpg4, mpe, mpeg, mpg, qt,  wmv, xvid, rm. All video files are converted to Flash Video (flv) format when you upload them.

 

swf - SWF file uploads are limited to Pro account holders. SWF files must be 10MB or less, and can only be uploaded through the Image & Video Uploader, the old Photobucket image uploader, or via FTP. If you want to upload SWF files into your Photobucket album, we recommend that you upgrade to a Pro account.

 

So I did a search for converting a ppt to an flv...

 

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=convert+a+ppt+to+flv

 

I found this...

 

http://ppt-to-flv.downloadsoftware4free.com/

 

There's lots of ways to convert files these days...some of the software is even free

What are you getting stuck on Bill? I`m no puter guru, just have figured out how to make some stuff around this site work. Mostly by trial and failure. LOL. Will help anyone if I can.

No clue if this is still going on, but just save the image (if a picture) as a JPEG samllest form and upload. You can compress the PP (Power Point) in a zip or similar size. The key is size the smaller the faster it will load. If you want you can take a PP and turn it into a JPEG,GIF, or any other format. However each slide will become its own image.

 

Hi Mike--Thanks for the offer to help. I really don't know what I am doing wrong. I am in the process of uploading stuff into anew faster computer. Because of some quirks, I had trouble getting some pictures in there. (OK now)Now I need to upload them to Photo Bucket. After that is where I run into trouble What URL do I use to get pix to the Avatar and into the other areas??? I want to build a Siggy and pix so that I don't have to retype every time!! I'm just a hardheaded ol" fart wid no computer skills. Still have ta count on my finger and toes!! LOL HeHeHe!____________ Bill J.
