| I tried to follow the instructions given to Lung Tom, but I can't get my picture to post. What am I doing wrong. I get a message saying "exceeds 100 kb." |

This is from the FAQ Forum:
A lot of you have been asking about how to resize your photos so you can upload them to the site.
Most computers today have at least a simple photo-editing tool built into them. If yours doesn't, you can download free photo-editing software from Picasa (picasa.google.com). When you save your file, make sure to save it as a JPG or TIFF. Also, if simply resizing it to make the photo smaller doesn't work, try adjusting the dpi (dot per inch) to around 72 dpi.
Also one or your fellow users, Jerry, recommends using Irfanview.com (www.irfanview.com). Here are his tips:
1. Use your mouse and make a box around only the part of the picture you want to post up.
2. Click on edit (on tool bar) and then click crop selection
3.Click Image (on tool bar)then click resize/resample down to set new size. Put in 500 in the width the height will change bu itself. That's ok. The number could be more than 500 for a 100k image but start there.
4. Click on file, go down and save as (give picture a new name). If your picture is just a little over 100 you can slide the bar at the top right of the save page. Slide the image quality to about 60. That will reduce the size and not the image quality as viewed here. |

| I have noticed that many of the uploaded paintings are smaller in size, while others take up the entire computer screen. How can this happen when all images are under 100k size? |

I would love to know this also- it seems no matter what size file I send it is always about the same size on the forum. Please email me if you know the answer. Thank you!! Do you know how to use the emoticons? I am using Mac OSX and when I click on one the lettering appears, but no symbol. |
