Progress. Or not.

The upload issue has cost me more time and energy than expected.

Step 1: Chose a new upload site.

After much research, I chose a place called Shutterfly. It had great reviews. Free, no upload limit and no size limit. Seemed perfect.

Step 2: Renaming pictures.

When I first started taking hair pictures and uploading them, I didn’t always know what styles would “stick”.For instance when I first saw a Celtic knot I thought it would be my most favourite style ever. 

But since it only looks like a slightly lumpy Chinese bun when I do them, that didn’t happen. I had a lot of braided Nautili buns stuck under “Updo xxxx” since I didn’t think that one bun would become my go-to.

In general, most of my pictures needed an extra “0” in the file name to keep them ordered or some renaming that made more sense.

Step 3: Sort in categories for easy upload.

Makes it easier when I have to find pictures again too.

Step 4: Upload everything to new site.

Phew, good thing I didn’t have to upload them one at the time!

Step 5: Insert new picture address in old broken images.

I decided to start with a brand new picture and take a length shot.

…Only to discover that Shutterfly doesn’t allow you to link a picture as easily as I expected. At least not in full size. And what’s the [bleep]ing point then? Sure I can make albums and invite people to see them, but why can’t I just stick my full sized picture in a simple [IMG]?

[Bleep] you, Fluttershy. [Bleep] you, [Bleep] you, [Bleep] you!

Anyways. Here are the largest pictures [bleep]ing Fluttershy allowed me to post.

(Including the weird white BS on the sides taking up room)

I think I’m actually getting close to terminal length. My growth appears to stall and the ends are getting pretty thin.

Oh well, another thing to take a look at when I have more time.
