I've been staring out my window all day waiting for the mail....soooo excited! lol When it comes to taking pictures of my coins, I have a decent 8 mgpxl digital camera, about a year old now, but I can't figure out how to turn the auto focus off, so every time I try to take a close up picture of a coin it's just blurry __________________ Oh Well.

Try this link and go down the right size of the page and look for image resizer. After downloading you can right click on your picture and should be an option to resize picture. Usually the large selection works fine. Good luck and let's see Abe! http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx __________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVkEk-ci8xk You remember it.
