Ok I went to upload some pics of my truck on to my gallery, but it said they where to large or something? How can I resize them? I have a Cardomain site and they have always uploaded with no problem. Sorry for the dumb question.

 

Most photo editors can resize images.
I use Microsoft Photo Editor.

Is there anywhere that I can dl it from? I dled amazing photo editor, but its only a trial version.

 

Im not sure how to get just Microsoft's Photo Editor. It comes with the Office Tools when installing Microsoft Office.
There are other free tools that you can get, I have little to no experience with them.
If your running windows, MS Paint can resize the image, but it is a little more difficult that MS Photo Editor.
Adobe download may also offer a free (limited capability) version of Photoshop that will allow you to resize images.

We'll I got to lookin around on the laptop and found that I have MS office installed on my computer, but I went to go open up MS office Picture Manager and it called for one of those product keys which I do not have. So I guess that does me no good. I'm tryin to resize the pic in Paint right now....................

 

here is a free program that works great for resizing pictures www.irfanview.com

 

Worked like a champ Bob. Thanks

 

always happy to help, and its hard to beat the price

 

Cool program to really modify th pictures (but a little complicated to start off with) is the gimp.

If we have 5 Mb worth of space on our accounts, why can't we use the space with less pictures that have more megapixels.

I'm kind of a quality over quantity guy. This problem will only get worse as better cameras become cheaper. Just base the allowable picture file size on how much space the account has left.

What do you think?

Especially frustrating when pic is like 505 Kb.

 

The picture has to be small enough so that it will work when posted in the forums as many guys do after placing it in their gallery. A very large portion of our membership is on dial up, big pictures mean big page loading times.

Not much sense in placing a picture in your gallery that half the people will never be able to see

 

Well I went and uploaded some pics(or I thought I did) about 5 days ago and they still haven't come up in my gallery. Whats up?

 

Dave, apparently your attempt was not successful there are no pictures from you waiting to be approved. I don't know why, maybe if you can email one of the pictures to me I can see what is going on.

I'll get you some pics, but I dont have my laptop with me right now with all my pics on it. Actually have some pics on my digital camera I could email you.
