Sorry guys, I realise I should have added this to the technical section.

Cheers Darren.
I will try my best. Not very technical when it comes to computers.

Sorry Livistona, we had to introduce size limits as the cameras became evermore storage hungry. We had people just add pics at 6 to 8mb each, up to 80mb per post, and the hosting space would disappear in no time at that rate.

What ever comes off my camera goes straight into Adobe PS,

I remove wasted space around the image, then sort out the size too.

Just do that Livistona...800x600 usually.

Yes Kata, I realise now that I can take photos from a distance, then crop out the wasted space round the photo. That seems to work sometimes.
Thanks.

I don't own a Mac so guess work.

Get your pics on the computer. Do you have a USB slot for the digital camera cable?

Open your photo editor (Photoshop etc) file --> look for your scanner if you have one to take away wasted space. In your chosen photo editor go to image -->resize to 800x600.

You could also use the links given to you.

You then save as on your drive in a directory/folder. In our text editor in the forum look we look for the word 'browse' this will find your image, remember to click 'add file' which is next to it once it finds the photo.
