    Maybe not assassins as the Caesarian history books would lead us to believe...rather possibly Heroes of the Res Publica?

    chrsmat71 I LIKE TURTLES!

    you can probaby reduce the size of the pics on your camera or phone. i take them big, and shrink if needed using a photo editor.

    here a popular one...

    While resizing images one at a time is possible in hundreds of programs, I have enjoyed the above freeware EZ Thumbs. You can resize up or down one of a whole folder full of a thousand images setting several parameters (for example if you know that resized images to use on you projector need to be lighter than your normal files or need to have some sharpness applied). You can have the new size saved with a prefix or suffix you like since you should NEVER overwrite your original files. If you resize a 3000x2000 image to 300x200 it will look fine but making a 300x200 into a 3000x2000 will look terrible. Save the big files for later use! The program only takes a few seconds per file but even that means a thousand will take some time.
