For photos, what you see below are just very small versions of the original. You probably don't want them. So (left) click on the picture or anywhere in the line and you
will get a new page where you can right click (Control-click with a Mac one button mouse) and save the full size picture to your computer.
For other types of files you can right click on the file name at the far right of the row and select &qouot;Save Link As..."
When you download a picture, and in most cases when you download a video or audio recording, you will get the description too. It's hidden inside the file as a comment and
can be seen with a variety of different apps. A free app called ExifTool will find any information hidden in a file and ExifTool runs on Windows, Mac, & Unix.
But many image editing tools also have a way to view internal comments. GIMP or GraphicConverter on the Mac and Irfanview on the PC both can show the comment to you.
GIMP and Irfanview are free.
Description Color and Editing
Descriptions are colored. A red *NONE* means there is no description. A yellow description means that it is
incomplete, as indicated by the presence of a question mark, or any of the words "unfinished", "unknown", or "maybe" in the description.
Descriptions without these words are shown in green to indicate that the description author thought the description was complete.
To edit the description of anything shown here you will need to (left) click on the description. (For pictures you can click anywhere on the line.) The page that comes up
when you click has the comment in a box where you can edit it. If you're editing on your phone you can even put emojis in the comment. Adding names of people or any information
you have about when or where the picture was taken is very helpful for anyone trying to find pictures of an individual or an event. Don't forget to save your changes with the
button under the box. Descriptions are NOT saved automatically when you move to another web page.
Descriptions used by Search
There is a search page on this web site where you can look for specific people, dates, events or anything you want among the over 1,200 pictures.
But the computer can't look at the pictures to determine who's in them and what they were doing or when the picture was taken.
So the search has to rely on searching the descriptions that we add to the pictures etc. The search is only as good as the descriptions
we provide so please help if you can to make the descriptions as complete as possible.
