Ski photos anyone?

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 23:58:35 GMT

Im getting bored of worrying about a holiday thats a year off. Has anyone got any pictures of what ski resorts and skiing is really like? All iv seen of a ski resort is what i see in the first choice mag. and a little on the internet. Most the time when i think of a ski resort i always seem to think of Dumb and Dumber, dunno why :lol:
Anyways if its easy enough/possible to upload some of your pics and you dont mind me or anyone else having a look at them, it would be nice to see some. :D

Hi again sm4sh, as I said elsewhere, all in all we had a good time in Borovets, just not good skiing. But I also stated that the beginners in our group did Ok with the limited snow.

Beginners do NOT need anywhere near as much snow as an intermediate or advanced skier will be after.

First of all you have to register (it's free) with one of the websites that host photos (or however you describe it), like picasa or photobucket. Then you have to follow their instructions on how to upload your photos from your computer to them, and then their instructions on how to download them to wherever you want i.e. j2ski.com.

The most important thing (hint from Pablo) is to practise first and click 'preview' instead of submit on this site, so you can check it works first, and it's not too big. Most people make loads of mistakes to start with (including me of course).

You can go from facebook as well. Copy and paste the image url (or image location), to get this you right click on the photo. Pretty sure there is a posting photos stick somewhere.

Some of my Obergurgl photos.

I think I was there at the beginning of January '07, with my 2 kids, when there was very little snow in many resorts. There was enough snow to ski on in Obergurgl, but it was much less snow than they usually have, and it was quite icy.

The pictures look good where you got the cloud below you. so you ski into a cloud where it becomes foggy and you cant see anything ?
