Anyone have software suggestions that might already be in my computer?

many thanks

You are using a forward slash, use a backslash instead

If you have Microsoft Photo editor, when you go "Save As" there is an easy to move the resolution down, there is a slider along the bottom.

BW,

(My fingers are tired of writing this all the time...)

If you have a pic and a message, write the message and post it, email me the pic and tell me where you've left your message - just identify the thread - and I'll upload it.

I know you want to do it yourself, but some (most?) computers don't come preloaded with image manipulation programs.

Kevin, you could probably afford a Marathon for what a windshield replacement would cost!

I'd guess in places it's almost 1" thick, compared to some large, one piece bus windshields I saw in Japan

Perhaps... but the lines on it are just so much better than mine... But I'm also quite happy with mine. :-)

Oh, and if you use Windows, MSPaint is _capable_ of reducing image sizes... but it's a pain in the neck. Good luck if you choose that route....

Got to the right place this time, just too big an image.

Ok, Pete from Daytona is providing some technical support in the way of pic shrinking.

keep on ignoring this test!

happy coaching!

Brian,

It's all explained in the "Formatting" section. Max size for pix is 20 kb for the obvious reason.

Good luck.

Brian, 20KB doesn't have enough resolution for that size of picture. You would need ten times that for a good readable shot.

You could cut the picture up into a bunch of pieces and post the lot of them. If someone printed them out, they could tape the parts together.

On the other hand, Ian might not approve of that tactic.

If a readable copy is posted elsewhere, you might just post a link to it.

Whatever works.
