make it smaller? :D

    alternatively put it in your image gallery
    click album -> scroll down page to 'your personal gallery

    click 'upload pic'

    select pic to be uploaded

    when pic is uploaded navigate to it in your personal gallery

    right click the pic

    select view image you will now see the address (URL) of the image in the browser address window

    copy address

    paste it as a link in your mail

Hey Stevie,
Theres a small tool available free in Microsoft .com called
picture resizer.
Download this and install it.
Open your "my pictures" folder - highlight the pics and rick click the mouse - you should see an option to resize - click this an a box will pop up
in the advanced section you must check the
"make pictures smaller " box and also the
"resize originals - dont make copies" box
and click OK.

This will resize all your pics down to about 30KB and you should have no probs post them (or emailing them) 8)

Hope this works - pm me if you need any further help

John.

Thanks for all the help. I've had a go at posting - see my post about 'What kind of rockling'.

I bolloxed about for nearly two hours with Photo Impact 10 to try to resize a picture and couldn't do it. Finally noticed what Kraken wrote about 'picture resizer'. It did the job so simply that I didn't realise it had done it, I had about 5 resized pics before I caught on!! I don't know if it's wise to resize the original as well though. I think it is better to keep an original in case you need it for something else later.

Thanks Kraken you saved my bacon.

Hey, I'm a poet as well!

Cheers people
