Message:: [QUOTE="Mikjo0, post: 89892, member: 3565"]suzs,I learned to reduce the file sizes of my pics from Doug in this forum but only if you're running windows.Click on Start/Programs/Accessories/Paint/File/Open/then find where the pic is on your hard drive/C/Program files to go to your cameras file system (mine is Nikon) or My Pictures or My Documents,wherever they are,then go to the bottom of the box where the menu is,it should say bitmap.You need to change this to  "all files".Then go to your picture and click it,when it appears in the window,click it again and it should open onscreen.Now go to image and click "stretch/skew".You will see boxes for horizontal and vertical.Reduce them from 100% to   about 50-75% and OK.Go back to file at the top left and choose "save as" and click Save.It will say that the file already exists do you want to replace it? Click OK and your photo will now be small enough to post on the forum.If not,reduce it down more (25-35%) using the same method.Eventually you'll learn what size gets your pics down to or below 100KB (the max size for posting here).Sounds complicated but after you've done it a couple of times,it only takes a minute or two.Good luck.[/QUOTE]
