Default Picture posting on this site...

Just an FYI.

I changed the settings for imbedded pics in posts. Max size (width) is now 650. Anything bigger than that messes up the format of the web page, and we really don't have time to go back and edit the pics that are posted that exceed the limits.

If anyone isn't familiar with how to edit pics down, there are several free programs available (some come with the software included with digital cameras). There are also several free websites available, where you can upload the pic and make changes to it, saving it back to your computer for uploading here.

If you have questions, or need any help, post up here and we'll be glad to help.

I always edit mine to 800x600. Will that size still work?

600(w)x800(h) will, but not 800(w)x600(h).

As an example, the ones you posted today in the PA thread are 880(w)x660(h). They are completely off the page. They are also 284K, which are pretty large. Most of the ones that do fit are right at or under 100K, which also load much faster for those with slower connections.

Height is no big deal, we can always keep scrollling down, so I left that one alone.

that is weird because when I add those pictures they fit my page perfectly.

this one is 650 x 487 and only covers half of the page.

If you keep them around that size (100K) it's all good.
