Need a great evening NYC/Spirit Picture!...and FAST

[CatskillsMom]

I booked the 1 nighter next weekend as a surprise for my best friends birthday. I'm putting together a sort of scrapbook/birthday presentation that she''ll receive THIS Saturday (her actual b-day) of this SURPRISE trip.

 

I'm looking for a great nighttime photo showing the ship with the NYC skyline as a backdrop. However, any great Spirit photos or a link to a few great photos would be most welcome.

 

Thanks everyone!

A tall order, since the Norwegian Spirit has never been to New York City before this weekend. However, there is a wonderful picture you can download of the Norwegian Spirit at NCL's website:

I took a night time picture of Spirit in Ensenada on our 5 day run 10/16/05. It's in webshots under alderaniandad.

LOL..I completely flaked on that one! After I posted, I thought about the Spirit not being in NY until next weekend so therefore HOW the heck could I get a picture with her there? Hmmm, any professional photo 'fixers' out there? Add the NY skyline to the Spirit? Just kidding...

 

I could use a pic of the Dawn as a substitute. I know I saw a picture from someone on this message board of the Dawn sailing out of NY at dusk. Does anyone know where that is?

It's true, the Spirit has never sailed to NYC before.

Here's a photo I downloaded somewhere that I like a lot.

That is a pretty photo.

 

Thanks.

I already did, you should see it now.

 

And yes I know, the text on the bow reads Superstar Leo.

 

But Superstar Leo = Norwegian Spirit.

Here is a link that pulls together most of the photos of the Spirit. If you can't find what you want here not sure you will.

I have a great pic, (Not NYC), but do not know how to upload it here. (Too large).

If you could post your e-mail, I would be happy to send it along.

To answer your question, try using the Attachment feature.

 

What Are Attachments?The administrator may allow you to use the attachment feature of this forum, which gives you the ability to attach files of certain types to your posts. This could be an image, a text document, a zip file etc. There will be a limit to the file size of any attachments you make, as the forums should not be used as an extension of your hard disk!

To attach a file to a new post, simply click the [browse] button at the bottom of the post composition page, and locate the file that you want to attach from your local hard drive.

Only certain types of files may be attached: these are the valid file extensions for files to be attached to this forum: bmp doc gif jpe jpeg jpg pdf png psd txt.

After posting, the attachment will show up in the body of your message. To view the contents of the attachment (if it is not already displayed) simply click the filename link that appears next to the attachment icon .

 

 

If your photos are too large, shrink them. There are many free or low cost applications that can do this for you. One way to shrink photos is to change their resolution. Since most computers displays only display 72 to 75 dpi, try using this lower setting in your application.

 

Another way to post an image, assuming you have the ability to upload images onto a web based drive, or web based albums, is to link that image from the web based drive. I used iTools from Apple, the mac.com web based drive.

Here's how:

Yes, I know, the link above shouldn't work. But if you filled in the names above with real names, it would.

Thanks. I hate to admit it, but I still had problems. I learned to use this thing after I received it as a gift for my 65th BD some years back - and it is still a mystery to me. I'll keep trying to "shrink" the picture though. Eventually, most of my problems do get solved.

Thanks again.:p SailAways

I forgot the image tags on the second answer to an earlier post.

 

Don't forget them {IMG}your web address image{/IMG}

 

Also change {} to []

Sorry double post.....

If you click this link, you'll see two pictures of the SuperStar Leo (aka the Norwegian Spirit) and her sister ship the SuperStar Virgo docked in Singapore together for their first time, January 2004.

Sailaways..

 

You can send me the picture via email dortlieb@hvc.rr.com

 

Thank you! I'm working on the 'book' today and think it's going to work out really great. She'll be very surprised and I'm really excited to finally SEE the Spirit!

 

I appreciate your help.
