Unless there is an index.html (or other html file) pointing to the pictures etc it will give an error 404. I presume it's a security feature. I find it annoying because if I have any pictures I want to share with my brother in London I haev to upload them *and* create an html file pointign to them, then send him a link to the HTML file. Don't worry, it's not you having a senior moment. Kind regards, JulianThanks, I feel a lot better. I will have a go at my web host first. But, meanwhile, what sort of HTML file do I need to create? Perhaps there is a simple layout which I could use for every situation like this. Thanks Neil
Some thing like <html> <head> <title>My Pics</title> </head> <body> <img src="pic1.jpg"> </body> </html>If you want it a bit more complicated you can use thumbnails too, but for simply listing the pics the above should work.
Have a look at http://www.kaotic.co.uk/family/winter2010 for an example of what I do :)
