Dan, how is it some sites require a poster to use a host site and here we can post the picture from our pc?

Other sites host on the cheap, and are limited both in storage space and bandwidth caps.  Images hosted on the site need to be stored, and then bandwidth used each time someone calls for the page (and the associated images). 

Images hosted on another site just need to pass the link, not the whole image.  The site hosting the image is the one using the bandwidth.

Dan probably has obtained a better host, or has deeper pockets.   :)

Probably the former  ;)
Prices have come down from years past, I recently went with a hosting company that offers   24,000 MB Disk Space & 600 GB Monthly Data Transfer for under $8 per month. (and they are NOT the cheapest ones out there)

Still some sites require outside hosting, or put a kb limit on file size as the more images on a page, or the bigger an image is, the longer it takes the page to load. Some of us with cable/DSL connections forget that there are a whole bunch of people who still "dial-up" and all that cool stuff we see immediately is just a huge frustrating delay to the fax-modem crowd.

I was wondering whether posting pictures indiscriminately can become a privacy issue between your RW and yourself. For me, I would be worried. Not because of ridicule but because something which is special is mitigated by the public viewing it with judgment. Any thoughts?

How does the idea of "privacy" differ in the FSU than in the US/UK/West?

Suggest you take that to a new topic rather than an extension of this one.

LOL . . . I remember how, when my temples and goattee started going rapidly gray in my early 30's, I went with a fu manchu moustache (shaving the gray middle out) and flattop mullet (buzzing the gray temples down so they looked blond and growing the back out to compensate).  Looks a sight, in pics, but in Spokane in the 90's that was still fairly hip. *G*

Until I'm out on a date with this college gal, and she's playing with my mullet, and says "wow, you've got a gray hair . . . oh, wait, here's another . . . and here's another one . . . say . . . how the hell old ARE you, anyway?"   ;D

For anybody who's interested, it's a kind of photo-chronicle of our 7-year 

DS
Why is it 7 if you got married in 2000? Are you counting from the time of your first dates in 1999?
Quote from: Doug's blog
Twenty years old with several marriage proposals from local guys in Krivoy Rog. Perhaps the most successful girl in her apartment block in terms of staying out of trouble and surviving the terrible period leading up to and following the collapse of the USSR. This was due mainly to the industry and drive of her mother, who kept her well-dressed and educated by engaging in the risky business of importing black-market clothing and shoes from Poland. Olga's Mom urged her to "marry abroad" instead of locally. And it was Mom who signed Olga up with "marriage agencies." Olga had many Western suitors, many richer than me, but most older than me and with children or other baggage from previous marriages. I was the third one to actually come and visit her.
I’ve read so many times about  several marriage proposals and Turkish boyfriends and always wondered  - what that suppose to mean? I guess every man should get jealous reading this stuff, but what sort of achievement is that? And how do you know about this proposals? Her mama told you about them? If you  won’t marry her now, you’ll be biting your elbows  in the future, there is a long queue of men willing to do just that?  On the second thought, I believe she is not from a royal family and doesn’t have Asian or Indian roots, where proposal without relationship is a norm and arranged by parents.

Doug - Nice story and photos in the blog,thanks.
 In reading your posts over the years I had never realized the negativity you guys faced, on the family side of things initially.


wild orchid -
 6 -7 years is pretty close  since they met in 99 and married in 2000? and certainly the blog/story photos cover that time frame ,,
 strange to *nitpic* in this thread?
*shrugs*

Why won’t  say 8 then? 7 and 8 are close as well.  I’m not picking on any one, just trying to understand.  I’ve met my husband in 1997, married him in 1999. Am I married for 10 years, according to Doug and Olga it exactly 10 (+ or - 1 year) ;) It doesn’t really matter, I know a lot of couple who count their time together from the moment they met each other, not marriage though. I’m more interested in answers to my other question.

AJ,

Beautiful photos which, IMO, were in good taste and not at all improper.

Congratulations to you guys - and hope to see more of those riskque photos (and others) from your upcoming anniversaries.

AW,

A little deductive reasoning then.

I offered congratulations and mentioned "future anniversaries".

That, plus AJ's many posts should let you in on the fact that this is his WIFE - and they just celebrated their 3rd anniversary.
