Best regards,

Any thoughts on how to resize a jpeg file?

If you're using windows XP, microsoft actually has a great program they offer for download for free. It's called "Power Toys", and there are a few of them in the list on their site, but the one for resizing pics if very nice (and super easy to use too. You just open the pic you want and "right click" on the pic. In the window that opens, click "resize", it will open a small window with choices such as small, medium, large, and custom (custom will allow you to actually choose the number of pixels wide and tall). This will allow you to make the images small which also makes the file size smaller so they can be uploaded here at the forum.

If you want to enter one here, I can try to help you resize the photo. My desktop with XP is down at the moment, and I am using a laptop with windows' new operating system, "vista" on it... which I do not like by the way... it's uses lots of RAM just to run, let alone trying to do anything on it... but anyway, you can email the photo to me and I will resize it to a smaller size and see if I can get it under 100KB for this forum, and email it back to you if it will help you out, no problem, glad to help.

If you are lucky to use a Macintosh open image up in Photshop and under image size make it , say, 4" x 5". Then give this a name and send. Hope this helps.

Personally, I may even get up the 'courage' to {ugh} follow directions (guys do not like to read directions {grin}) and try posting my first picture. Gasp!

Great day to all my Randall bretheran.

ANY CHANCE, that anyone who knows how could redo the posting chart now that the forum format has changed? I had just mastered the old one and now that it has changed I cann't post.

HELP--PLEASE!!!

If I do everything as written, will I be able to see the photo(s) included with
the post when I hit "Preview Post" button?

Some forums I have been on, show the photo(s)in the preview, and some forums show only the written entry but not the photos in the preview.

If photos are supposed to be viewed in the post preview, I'm doing something wrong. Followed Rhett's instructions including "Done Adding Files". File Manager shows number of files OK.

When I hit "Preview Post", only the message shows, not the photos. Help!

Buck,
I get the same deal. My photos appear after I hit submit.
Best, Capt. Chris
