POSTING IMAGES

Hello all, several people have said that they have problems posting images.
There are several ways of posting images.

1. If you have the stamp(s) and a scanner, scan them. I prefer to scan at 300 DPI and save as PNG (or BMP) These file formats are better quality and allow you crop or modify the image. JPG images are compressed and any alterations show as noisy poorer quality images.

2. If you want to copy an image from the web, you can, either right click and copy the image if the site allows this. If the screen image is too small, try using “Ctrl” + “+” to magnify the image (the “Ctrl” + “+” can be used several times on the same image) until you have the desired size. Copy and Paste into your image software.

3. If you cannot copy using method 1 or 2, Select the web image and resize if required, then press the “Prt Scr” key (above number pad) then go to “Paint” or other photo software, create a new blank image and “Paste” the image into your software. Select and copy the desired area of your screen area, then resave new image.

4. If you must use a camera, do not get too close, ensure that it is in focus and that the image is rectangular. Modify your photo in your paint or photo programme.

5. Once you have your desired image, select the portion that you require and use the “Copy” command.

6. Open Stamp Exchange and select the reply (or new thread) then “right click” and paste your image, add your comments and submit your post.

I hope that this will help some of our "Newbies"

Well explained James.

 

Thanks for the excellent explanation, I just wish I had seen this before. It took me a while to figure out what I was doing!

 

Like old coins, I find stamps to be a fascinating look at history. One of the oldest stamps is the Penny Block. Has anyone here ever seen one in person? Does it only exist in a museum somewhere?

 

Hello JudyD
although the penny black was only used for about 10 months, May 1840 - Feb 1841 there were 68,808,000 stamps printed so they are not as uncommon as you would imagine. I have two quite poor copies maybe worth $10-20? I also have two very fine 1840 2d blues and two later 2d blues and 70+ imperf and perforated penny reds 1841 -1879 worth various amounts.

Regards, James

 

I have to say, James, you are definitely more into stamps than I am. How extensive is your collection, anyway? What themes do you have? Or is your collection eclectic?

I have to admit I am more of a book collector than stamps. Yes, I think I have a few more books than stamps. But it's close.

 

Hello JudyD, I have a fairly extensive collection of stamps collected on and off over the past 63 years, books too, some coins, photos 30,000 + many taken on my travels.

Regards, James.

 

Hello Judy,
Is your Penny Black block for real?
If so, it is worth an amazingly large amount of cash.(Good on YOU)
Do you mind sharing where you acquired this rarity?
Thanks,
HGG
