I go the cheap way and use MS Paint. Just your Strech & Skew until it gets to the alotted amount.... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Come on its on the Internet its not like a Photography contest!

check the "New Forum Software" forum. There is a thread on picture posting there that should help.

Hey Badazz660R

1 right click on you picture and select open with Paint or Microsoft Paint
2 under the images tab if you click attributes it will tell you how big your picture is now (needs to be
750x750 or under, try and get it as close as possible so the pic is good size)
3 under the images tab click on stretch and skew
4 change the horizontal & vertical to 60% and click ok (60% is good to start off with, you may have to
try different combinations. I always click Edit undo if its not then try again with a different number)
5 under the images tab if you click attributes it will tell you how big your picture is now
6 save your picture as a .jpg file (.jpg will have a small file size) into an easly accessed folder
7 try uploading again to your page.
you may have to make them smaller than 750 to get the size below 150kb

Thanks for the help I have a few pics on here now. How long will it take for them to be on here for everyone to see?

It can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. A moderator has to look them over and approve the photo page then it will be accessible by others on the forum. When this happens depends on if there are any mods around and free to do it right away or not.

It usually takes about 30 mins for the system to cycle it to the moderators. Once there, it e-mails us a notice, that pictures are awaiting approval. If a moderator is on, then, it might not take all that long. I'll check in a few minutes and see if it's pending. Once approved, it will then automaticlly posts them and the camera will be under your screen name. Dan-Forum Moderator
