    Here is an idea. Use an actual digital camera, upload to computer and post. You should have options on your camera as to what size you want your pictures to be. That is how I have been doing it ever since I joined FHC.

    I bet half of these guys don't even own a standalone digital camera...some probably never have!

    That's exactly how I got the reputation for blurry pics.....by using a digital camera! :p Be careful what you're asking for. :whistle:

    I know, but whatever works. I have no tech support and when something simple technology wise goes awry I have no tech support as I do it so unconventionally.

    My late folks were the same way. My father made such a fuss when we bought him a VCR 40 years ago. Mom thought a microwave was kryptonite. Sad to say i think ive turned into them.:picard:

    buZZsaw BRAD Check your camera settings and see if there is one that would get you smaller size .jpeg's. The Sony camera I use has a setting called 'easy'. The size of the pics taken with that setting aren't all that large.:handshake:

    Geeze, here you are trying to make things easy and to work. How many will be able to do this? lol I found a couple of my old cameras a week ago. Hadn't even seen them for many years. In fact, the big reason I bought a smart phone was for the camera.

    I just took this pic with my camera and it is 1.33mhz in size. No cropping or resizing needed. The pic is of SBH nuts in the early stage.

    Well, it happened again. I got on an hour ago and was not able to load anything. It simply just suddenly went blank and then timed out. Just came back and is working. Frustrating.

    I thought I may have lost another post when trying to post above. I just waited...and waited. Finally it did post.

    I am getting about fed up with this crazyness.
