This initial area has been redesigned to work from an Index basis instead of the Scroll to the end that had been in place. Please let me know if you have suggestions for additions to the web site.

You can still scroll through this page; the index enables a quick path to an area.

Be sure to use the underline key ( _ ) between nhs and alumni If you key in any of the www names Be careful to get the upper case and / or lower case right on any www names

Photographs for sharing

I have created a new page option for alumni to present photographs that are probably of interest to others. The first category is photographs of the current Newport. I will add other categories as you send me messages.

Newport Downtown

Bob Hesch, NHS 1943 supplied several photographs of the downtown area. Those, like me, who now longer live in the NHS area will be “pleasantly surprised” to see these photographs of downtown. Click on Bob’s name to get to the page.

Please contribute any JPG files you have that show the new Newport. When I was there, last summer, I was really amazed at the changes in the east side of Newport.

Individual Photographs

This page is a collection of photographs / memory images that have been sent to me for posting. They will be posted and added to as received from you. Click on “This page” to go to the site.

Please forward any JPG images you want to share with the NHSA&A community.

Sharing Photographs

Many of you, the Class of '48 especially, have started to use E-Mail to exchange photographs or to post them on a web site for others to view.

Three options are available to help accomplish this. The more expensive option is to purchase a Digital Camera, use your computer to select your images and "improve" the image; this gets you involved in the use of skills that will be challenging at the beginning. If you are photography professional like Dan Grey, then this is a natural option. Even if you aren't a professional, many people like the ability to modify photographic images

The middle option, which many of you are probably already doing, is to use your scanner to capture the image of photos you have had developed in your normal process of taking pictures with 35 mm film. Besides the cost of the scanner, you will need to master techniques for scanning images and processing the scanned image to produce files that are appropriate to exchange.
Too many people send out files that are larger than 300 Kbytes in size. In general, photos for general exchange over the Internet should be under 100 Kbytes to minimize transfer time. Large files (some are almost 1000 Kbytes) are for printing on quality printers and seldom are exchanged amongst friends.

The least cost (starting) option is to have your 35 mm film rolls developed in a procedure which delivers to you the normal contact prints AND a computer useable CD or Floppy disc that contains each image in a digital format.
It is my strong recommendation that you investigate this option because of the quality of the digital images you receive, the software options to explore if you enjoy Cropping images, adjusting colors, etc.

I wrote an article for my computer club in March of 2000 that described this least cost / learn what is involved option. While it was written for my Apple friends, the information is applicable to my PC friends also.

The article is available in two forms. You can view the article or you can select it from the download folder. If you want to download, the file name is DigPhoto1.RTF.
