How to put a URL on a photo...

Brilynn

Do you mean put text on to the photo? If so, you can't do this with iPhoto, you'll need an external editor to do it: Photoshop Elements, Seashore etc. Search on http://www.macupdate.com

URL is the Internet "address" of a file.
To "make" one requires you upload your image file to a server. If you have .Mac account you can use your iDisk as the server.
Place the file directly in your iDisk Sites folder and the URL would become:
http://homepage.mac.com/username/filename.jpg (not a real link).

Still not sure if this is the answer, but if you select the pic and go File -> Export you can then get a window that will allow you to rename the pic or change it's size. Then export that to the desktop, and upload it from there.

Hi there,

QuickTimeKirk is correct, you will need to upload your photo to a server or any server you have access and permission, like a work website or personal website. You can also use a photo service like http://flickr.com/ AND be allowed to 'hot link' to that photo, link and URL are almost the same thing in your case. The url is only a location of where the website, page or even photo is located on the World Wide Web...

Good luck, Rick

Brilynn,

Another site you may want to check out is Photobucket.com. It's free (unless you upgrade to the "pro" version). You can upload your photos into albums and sub-albums. It will give you a URL for each photo, and you are allowed to hot link, so it works for eBay and blogging. They even allow you to upload small video clips. I've used it just so far-away relatives could see video of the kids.
