| Al's Prowler | Photo's I once posted for some reason can't be posted now, I think I've figured out how to post pictures again but need to reduce the file size. When I tried to post a picture it said I was over the limit of 70k, so how do I get the size down to the limit of 70k? TIA Al |
| whealy | Al, You need to make the picture smaller. It depends on the software you are using. You can keep the same aspect ratio (prevents the picture from being stretched) and change the height or width dimension. This will cause the picture to be a smaller size. Hope that helps ------------------

| Howler Cat | For me, I am using Adobe and save it under "save for web" option!!! If you don't have Adobe, E-mail the picture(s) to me so I can post it for you. Good luck!!! ------------------

| Al's Prowler | I don't have any pictures to post now but was wondering for future use, I can't see how to re-size the pictures I have so I'll have to wait for my son to come home for Thanksgiving. Thanks |

| Al's Prowler | Dan, thanks but my knowledge of computers is very, very ,very limited so I'll have to wait. Can you tell me this, will a photo size of 39703 bytes and a dimension of 640x480 pixels work? |
| CWatsonJr | Al - the number that is most important is the 39703. That is about 40K - well under the 70K (70000) limit. The other number 640x480 is asthetic. Most people here have their monitors set at 1024x768 - so it is well under that size too. Just for arguments sake though - the larger the dimensions (640x480) the larger the file size (39703). You can also play with the file size by reducing the number of dots used to form the picture - that is where software comes in handy. The Internet typically will not broadcast more that 72dpi (dots per inch) so posting a picture that is 100dpi has a lot of wasted file size. Hope that helps  ------------------

| dpena | OH YEA BATCLIFF,,, like if he is going to understand what you said?? You even confused me with all that ...... STUFF!! What does asthetic mean ....??? Is that like synthetic motor oil 10-30 weight?? Al, 70K bytes translates to this number 70,000 ... In your case 39,703 is much lower than the limit. By the way, 70K bytes means "one thousand". Never mind... BATCLIFF is getting ready with a comeback I know it!! Later... |
| Al's Prowler | Good news, bad news, Jan Bruggeman wanted me to post some pictures for him in the classifieds and I got them to work because they were under 40k. The bad news is I checked my photo site and all my pictures are all well over the limit of 70k, they run around 140k each. |
| CWatsonJr | Geeeez - now I am starting to type like Fixummmm.... Aesthetic My finger missed that other "e" somehow  Dan - I didn't expect you to understand it  |
| Marty Usher | Al - while Dan and Cliff once again resurrect their on going battle of who is the master of computers , what I think they are trying to tell you is to look in the program where you store your photos and then you can save the images at a smaller size. PhotoShop, PhotoHouse, and most programs that come with digital cameras give you this ability. Good luck Marty |
| WildCat | I have adobe business edition and it allows the size and DPI to be changed. I have had this program for years and have just learned how most of it works. The best thing is to try try and if that doesn't work try again...LOL Working on the calendar really helped me learn about the computer I've had for over 2 years. |
| Tony Goertz | The best and easiest way to manage / display your pictures is via your Personal Storage Maintenance on the POA site.
