Hope I'm not stepping on any toes here but
I noticed that some are having trouble with loading photos to this site. Here's some hints to help you with your photos:

www.photobucket.com - free hosting of your photos and you can resize them to make it easier to view on this forum.
(I just signed up with them to see how their system works otherwise I use my own site for photos.) Then copy the code for using on this forum ie - they have it set up real easy to do (highlight, copy, paste). Here's my sample on their site.


or you can host on your own site if you have one.
Advantages to hosting on photobucket or your own site - it keeps bandwidth useage here lower.

or you can post your photo to this site:
http://photos.aaca.org/ (link in the green bar at top if you haven't found it yet)

I haven't tried it yet to see what size limits there are for uploading a photo to it but other forums on other sites restrict sizes to less than 1000KB or 800pixels wide - keep that in mind.


For your own computer, if you're using windowsXP as your operating system, you can download a free powertoy from MSN.

look for "image resizer" in the list. I use that resizer all the time on mine.

Highly suggest using either the 640x 480 or the 320x240 or approx. those sizes for any of the resizers,
for whatever you post here to keep it within reason of those on dial-up. The smaller size is the best for them unless they need the detail of your photo.
