PS - This is one reason why it is better to just copy and rename a graphic from a digital camera rather than saving it under a new name with an image program.

Rather than trying to find a program to reduce the size of your images, try this:

www.imageshack.us

Free image hosting. They allow large photos and will resize them if they are too big. No sign-up is required. In my opinion, the best image hosting there is.

Hi ! Speedy,

Have the rules changed on posting pictures ? When I click on the clip to insert photo, it ask me for an HTTP link. How do I get around the link and go to find pictures like I did in the past ?

How do I post a picture by my user name? I tried again today but got a picture by my signature where I wanted it by my name.

Another photo question, if you change your photo today does it change your photo on previous posts?
