Need help posting a pic

[AlaskaAng]

Hi There,

I know how to post a picture but my problem is the large file size of my pictures. Aside from changing the res. on my camera...what's the best (and easiest) way to reduce a file size so I can add to this forum?

Thanks in Advance!

Angie,

I use Paint Shop Picture Album...I just click on the resize, then test on the "Test" thread here. When it passes the test I then post. Others may have different albums they use. Good luck!

I take the photos from a foot or so away and crop them down.

There is a photo forum down the menu on the home page here. Lots of good tips from the really good photographers. Good luck!! Welcome to TNet!

Ok all you have to do is click the link below, it will direct you to a small download (Windows power toys). After you do this small download all you have to do is go to my pictures or where ever you store your pictures. Right click a picture then in the option it will say resize pics just click that and it will give you 3 different size options. Ken

If you continue to have a problem ....
send me the photo in an email and I will size it for you and send it back.

Just another option for you.

Glad to help if you need.

I store my pictures at PhotoBucket.com for free then just use the direct link. This way I don't have to do any changes to the pictures and I have an album if I ever want to use an old picture for anything. Once you up load the picture just copy the direct link then click on the second camera icon when posting a topic then paste the link between the two texts. It is the easiest way I know.

There is also a forum on this website that deals with posting pictures and you can even practice there so people don't get mad that you are doing it in Today's Finds.

Good luck
