Hey all, I FINALLY took some shots of my crimson steed, lol.

When I try to post them to a new thread I get a message about it being too big of an image. How do I shrink it for posting?:shrug:
Thanx

There are free softwares available to help you resize pictures to fit on the screen. I use a program called photoimpression but it's cabailities are pretty limited.

To post pictures you need to have your files stored online at a place like photobucket or your own website. Then just do this: [*IMG]http address[/IMG*]

minus the * of course
 
Here is a free site you can use to crop and resize images if you don't want to install any software.

Otherwise, GIMP (I keep Portable GIMP on my USB Flash drive) is a great free one and you can find other commercial software packages on the Internet if you know where to look. ;)

Once you have them the way you want for posting here (go 800 pixels at the widest, IMO), host them somewhere to link to, srothfuss suggests.
