Re sizing pictures

[Joe Cannarozzi]

I can't believe, me, the computer illiterate is gonna attempt to explain this but here goes.

First its manage attachments then browse. When you select a file and then a photo, right click on the photo, options will come up and left click on edit. Then select re-size with a left click. It should display some pre-set dimensions or choose your own. I have been going with my own, 600 by 400 pixels. Make sure to hit O/K before exiting and upon doing that it will then ask to save changes, yes.

Then its open and upload and you got it.

That is how this gadget works

If anyone is helped by this it will be a true testament to the power of POG

Danger with this Joe is that you're saving your lo-res image right on top of your high-res image, which you might want later for printing.

Rather than Save, do a "Save-As", and chose a new name to save, like img0023-600x400.jpg That way, you always have your high resolution original to use for other purposes or sizes. once you've saved over with lower resolution, you've lost it.

Jon,

Did you try out this website, as posted by one of the members, to resize photos, keeping them less than 600 pixels wide?

My picture sizes are OK. I get an internet warning.

Mango,

I tried the website, more than once and in fact had Barbara, my technical guru overseeing which keys I was punching and we couldn't get them to convert.

I will try Joe and Ray's instructions as well and see what happens. We have all these pictures of the bus but can't seem to get them out to the group.

BTW, these are all digital camera photos in jpeg format in a 2850mb size.

I'm open to any suggestions as I like to keep my promises and don't want to suffer the wrath of the group.

A demo is a great idea, Dale!! I would appreciate your help and I'm sure others would. Sandy

Thsi took a little figuring out on how to re-size but I finally understood what Joe was saying. Thanks Joe.

Jon,

Glad to see that you've got it figured out. For a while, I thought it was just me!!

I know that even at the lowest resolution on my camera, I still have to re-size smaller to get the picture to up-load.

Sure is a nice shade of red...... reminds me a bit of my old 1970 convertible....350/350, 4 speed, factory side pipes... ah, those were the days!
