How do I resize a photo?
First of all, the easiest way to make most files smaller is to turn them into jpegs. This will compress the file size. How do you do this? Open the file in MS Photo Editor, click 'save as' and select jpeg. Then go to my computer and hold your mouse over 'whatever.jpeg' and a little box will pop up with the size of the file. If it's under 60Kb, you're good to go, if not you'll have to resize.
In MS Editor, go to image and go to resize it. it goes by percentage, so you'll have to do a litte math. if the picture is 300kb, you need to reduce it to under 20% to keep it under the 60kb limit.
Sound complicated? No problem, you can use the image resizer (located to the right of the 'forum mail' button) and the site will email you back your pics already resized. Voila!
You can also upload photos to a photo site (snapfish.com, shutterfly.com)
If the picture file that you have saved on your computer is under 60KB it is ok to attach at the bottom of this box where it says 'Attach pictures'.
All you need to do if the picture is under 60 KB is click on Browse (it will be under this box while typing a post - just under Add a Poll) and find the picture on your computer. The file name will show up in the box marked Browse that you were using. For more pictures - just repeat the process until all 4 boxes are filled.
If the pictures are too big to attach at the bottom of this post using the 'Attach Images' section (over 60 KB) you have options .
a) Use the re-sizer button as describe above
OR
b)Use your computer's photo software program to make the picture smaller then attach it like noted above.
OR
c) Upload your pictures to a community album on LIW and post the link to the album
OR
d) Upload them to a community album and the go to each picture, right click on Properties, copy the Address/URL, go to your post and click on 'Insert Web Image' (on the left hand side) and paste the address you copied. The address for the photo will appear in this box you are reading and when you hit post the photo will show up
OR
e) Upload your pictures to shutterfly.com or snapfish.com or winkflash.com and follow the copy and paste properties above (#d) to post photos into the thread.
OR
f) upload pics to snapfish.com or another photo site and share the album with yourself - and once you get the e-mail with the SHARE link, post that link using the 'Insert Web Link' option to the left when typing in this box
<------ under the emoticons
I know its frustrating...it took me a few months before I figured out a way to post
