Re: posting pictures
The original picture size was way too large, so I did the thumbnail thing, but now it only downloads the thumbnail size. Wish I could find my regular camera. It's an Olympus Stylus 400 that I had set on the perfect resolution for posting pictures here. My camera vanished a month ago, so I bought an identical one on ebay, but it won't stay set on the lower resolution.
I'll try the picture again. I set my camera on 1024 x 768, but when I close the lens the camera reverts back to the higher resolution. |

Re: posting pictures
Tom what's that white stuff we have not seen that in a long while here
I still have to get my snow blower ready for the season. I guess when or if it does come it will be a 911.. Last edited by Mitch//pa; 01-16-2016 at 02:26 PM. |

Re: posting pictures
Thanks to all. I reduced the size of the pictures and they all posted just fine. Pictures are on the Carburetor message.

I think you missed my point about cropping to reduce size. Of course everything should be shot at the highest resolution and full size original files should be retained. My original file was 9MB (EOS 5D camera). To be able to post without using an outside server (which I think is a bad idea) I had the choice of cropping or reducing the size of the whole picture in order to post. If I am trying to illustrate the headlight socket I think cropping is the better approach. |

Re: posting pictures
Chas,
I agree that cropping is good and many times cropping is the only option when going after details like you posted. Maybe I went into too much detail but years ago I made the suggestion to a fellow to reduce the size of his photos when displaying on a computer monitor. He reduced his whole collection and did not save the originals and then he was mad when he found that he could not edit, print or enlarge his photos. I never dreamed that he would make thumbnails out of his whole collection without keeping the originals. |

Re: posting pictures
I have Paint, but couldn't get it to reduce my pictures.
I did get my camera figured out, so I'll take most of my pictures in a lower resolution, and use my other camera for any high resolution picture I want to take. Here's two pictures I took today for my Craigslist ad, so they should post here OK, I hope. |

Re: posting pictures
I do have another problem though. When I click on a thumbnail, sometimes the page turns dark, and nothing else happens. I have to hit the back arrow and try again, and then it might enlarge. I'd guess it's a problem with my computer.
