Pony up and Get your Goat (pic spam)

Today Dreamwidth introduced easy image hosting! They had image hosting for a while, but it was really awkward (had to change your settings to allow email posting & post the pics from email & then you couldn't do much managing.) When you click to Post an entry, you'll find it under the 'create' drop down menu, 'upload images'. I don't think they have updated the FAQ yet, but in replies to comments they said the storage limit is 500MB for all account types. There are prob. a few bugs to work out, so I'm not trying it today. Also, since I have a permanent account at LJ, I have more storage space there. I forget what the limit is, but I've used up nearly 300MB and it tells me that's no more than 1%.
I think I'll save the DW hosting space for emergencies.
In other photo host news, maybe Ipernity is going to continue. The situation is still not resolved & they may continue but change it so that I won't stay there. They were thinking to *start* membership levels at $56 per year. And I'm No on that, almost doubling what I pay for unlimited usage now and no idea what limits they'd place at that price. Actually LJ's interface is much easier (when it WORKS)- I can get the posting codes for a bunch in far less time than it takes me to get even a single one (there's no way to get more than one URL at a time) at Ipernity (their focus is on community viewing & they barely acknowledge that you might like to use them as a photo host for viewing elsewhere.)
Now that I know that the goats and ponies are locked up out of view on Tuesdays & Thursdays I went on a day I could see them. Some of the goats look VERY round, so I guess there will be kids some day. I may or may not remember to go back and see them.



The younger ponies are less shaggy. The pinto and the chestnut appaloosa are the youngest & the newest aquisitions, probably the only two they *could* use for the pony ride they have set up which I've never seen actually going on. I think they knew each other long before they wound up at the park- they tend to stay together, at a little distance from the other ponies.
