Right then my old munchkings ! why is it that some modellers still can't get it right in displaying the correct size picture :oops: Surely it's advisable to PREVIEW your post before you ACTUALLY post it.

Get it right guys, We don't wan't pictures as big as what you see at the back of a bus :shock:

I bet Wurger gets fed up of changing them !

Once youve made that goof up, I dont think there is any way for a standard member to fix the mistake either....or is there?

If you resize pics with MS Paint before uploading to Photobucket, upload times are a lot quicker too.

I always resize in Picture manager and save to a secondary folder within the folder that has the original pics, so I keep the originals as is.
 
I save all the pics on an external hard drive, resize and enhance with IrfanView and save on my computer in Adobe. Seems to work well enough.
:hotsun: :hotsun:
 
I can recommend IrfanView for resizing, It's easy to use and work like a dream.
Oh okay, admitted: I use it when I don't want to bother starting up Photoshop to twiddle with my pics. ;)
Good lil' program. :thumbleft:
For pic linking I use either my Picasa gallery, or my Facebook gallery - easy to use too, and easy to link to.
 
Just use MS Paint people. It is already installed on your computer, very easy to use, and only takes a few seconds.

I really don't understand why people have such a problem with this, and keep searching for "programs" to do so.

Use MS Paint!
 
Of course I have rersized less shots here than you Dan. :D I have been a mamber just for a few years.
And I agree the Irfanview is a very useful free software.With all plugins there is a possibility of easy converting many graphic type files into other ones as well.That's way I recommend the program to everybody who wants to show us whole pictures without scrolling.

I personally delete any resized pictures (not to save HDD space) because I just resize again whenever I have to upload anything. Depending if I am doing work on the pictures or not I'm editing them, if so I'll use Photoshop CS3 Extended or Irfanview.

MS paint uses a very simple algorithm for resizing. Infraview uses a better one which makes interpolations to get the best positions of the pixels. This gives you a better quality IMHO then Paint:
 
I held off using Infraview for a long time because I felt more comfortable with MS Paint.
Now that I use Infraview I never want to go back. IMO, It is much better.
The price for Infraview isn't bad either. ;)
