•• ADD YOUR COOP TO BYC •• ( formerly the Coop Page Contest )

Well Mine, won't be from scratch - we're in the process of converting an old shed - will that be ok to be included?

 

[Nifty-Chicken]

Sure will! We want people to submit what they have available.

Nifty-Chicken,

I was reworking my coop page today and wanted to use the clickable thumbnail option from Photobucket but can't make it happen on my page. What am I doing wrong? I'm not new to pic posting...am I missing something???

First off Dawn... love the coop, pictures, and descriptions.

Try this:

1) insert the thumbnail image from photobucket (like you already have it)
2) Select the image in the editor and then click the link icon (looks like a chain link) to link it to the larger version of the image.

See an example by clicking on the first image here:

Please let us know how it works as this would be a GREAT thing for others to do, especially if they want to use bigger images of their coops (because we shouldn't post pictures bigger than 500 pixels wide and 150 kb's in size).

Thank You so much Nifty! I got it goin' on now!

I wanted to add more pictures without taking up too much space and to that is just the ticket!

Great job! I clicked on your first image and it worked like a charm.

Your coop is listed on the "small coops" page here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/chickencoops1.php

It will probably be bumped up higher on that page once I do the next round or organization.

Thanks Nifty! DH was thrilled when I showed him "our" page.

He took specific measurements so we could start building our own versions of the Chick-N-Barn/Yard. Once plans are comleted, we'll post them to share with everyone.

I asked him to go ahead and join the forum too. He's working 60 hours a week right now, but he always comes here to read on Sunday mornings...that info just made my day! We love this site and everyone involved!

Wow, that's great Dawn! You'll be the third couple I know of on the forum (me and my wife were the first).

Rob, here's my coop page. I couldn't find pictures of the building process. When I find them, I'll add them.

Valerie, that's excellent! I'll add that page to the BYC coops page ASAP.

I'm looking forward to seeing the process pics.
