HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[moscrapper]

I tried to upload some LO to the gallery but the files are too big!!!!!!!!! It says they have to be 500k or smaller!!!!!!!!! Mine are like twice that! Any suggestions? I used to have a program that would resize them - not an online one somethng you download - anyone?

Do you have windows? xp?

[SarainMN3]

do you have photoshop, that's where I resize mine

[DangerMouse]

I crop mine in photoshop.... I don't have the full blown install just the free starter, and that always makes them small enough

[rukristin]

If you have windows XP there is a little windows power tool you can download and then just right click to resize your pictures; it makes it ridiculously easy.

Kristin, where do you find this stuff? I need to know more. where do you get this tool (sound familiar)... :)

(not to hijack, but I got my files today... thanks!!!)

Picasa by Google is a free online download and you can "export" your layouts to it and that resizes it. It's pretty easy and did I mention it was a free program? lol

Ok, I guess I didn't reset it in order to save server space.

Your layouts have to be resized to 800x800 and under 500 kb. If you need any help doing that in whatever program you're using, let us know.

And thanks Kristin for that link!

I have windows DINOSAUR!!!!!!!!!!! Just kidding I think it's Millenium. Yes we need a new computer. I don't have photoshop. Will upload to picasa or something I guess - was hoping to skip the double upload!

[moscrapper]

I did it!!!!!!!!!!! I uploaded them to photobucket and then linked them from there whew! Please go give me some love for all that effort!

[DangerMouse]

Yea! Nice job on the LO's too :)

I use photobucket as well. Also hate the double upload. But, it is better than nothing.
