I was going to post finds, I set my camera on the lowest pixel setting and the went to the instructions: "The maximum size of any one image allowed in a post is 512kb. HOWEVER - we recommend your image be no wider than 700 pixels wide.

I have a canon digital Rebel EOS and put it on the smallest setting...but I was afraid to try and post....would it be to large?

You can also check by putting the mouse over the pic and let it set for a second. It'll tell you pic info automatically such as dimensions, format, and size in KB. If it says 1280 X 960 then in Paint on top of page is Image. Click it and stretch/skew then blank out 100% on horizonal and vertical and replace it with 50% on each then save

I always try to change the pic size and name after saving it to the computer and before posting, leaving the original size on the card or cdrom.
