Title: A burning Question!
Post by dart on Jun 20^th, 2005, 11:07pm

This could have a very simple answer!
But be kind,I'm a layman.
How do you resize photos from something like photobucket to fit nicely and moderately into a post?
I've got some decent pictures from the Harewood meet but when I put them on the site there massive!and I've been asked by Admin to make them smaller because of the band width they take up!
Any stright talking answer would be very appreciated
Thanks dart :)

you can put pictures here as well and it will ask you if you want them resized I think http://groups.msn.com/TheFordScorpio1995
Or else get a demo copy of paint shop pro or similar and resize them using that.
there are quite a few programs that are freeware or shareware that can resize pictures.
Failing that I will send you my email address and send me the picyures you want resizing and I will do it for you.....Let me know by PM if thats what you want.
Or try here http://tinypic.com/ they resize anything over 250K on the free site .....

dart...

when you upload to photobucket,there is an option on that page to "reduce picture by 50%",if you make sure this box is marked,they will appear fine on here when you transfer to this site,....

No probs with that mate,I've got Photoshop so it's easy enough to do.By the way,the only pic manipulated is the caddy wing,the sky was boreing so I added a new one!
