  Daine, the only way I know to access them is by typing in the name in the search box...the little magnifying glass top right.

When the magnifying glass is clicked, the text "enter search term" appears. I recommend BP modify this text to reflect a people search. Or more ideally, add a link in the top menu bar that makes it easy for newcomers to view member galleries; e.g., Member Galleries or something like that.

  Thanks for the response. I asked because I have asked permission to upload a child's photo and want the parents to know and see the site to allay any concerns.

  Dalne, if that's the case just give them the link to your gallery or to the specific photo.

  That is probably the best thing to do! Thanks, Ken!

  Can people right-click & save your photo to their computer?

I want to post photos that I have full rights to---that I took---but the people don't have the rights to the majority of the photo's I'd be posting.

I know confusing right??

Long story short---I'm trying to better myself as a photographer---so I did free photo shoots in exchange for full rights---& am able to do whatever I want with the images---anyways the subject/s only get 5 photos in the exchange.

So I want people to see my photos--especially local people on Facebook---but if they can save them---then I don't want to post them!!

Someone please help!!

Thanks in Advance
Laura

  Laura, BP does not allow right-click saving of photos. In fact, they the technology does not allow any downloading of photos.

  Right clicking does not work on BP but it is still easy to get photos from the BP web site. The pictures will be low resolution but many people don't care about quality.

  Agreed. I can capture any photos, but the largest size I can get on any here at BP isn't much above 850 pixels wide. At best that might make a halfway decent greeting card.

  Anyone can use a snippet tool clip out the photo from the monitor. Granted, it's only 800 pixels wide. Over the years, many BPers photos have been on other people's flicker accounts, Facebook, etc.
