Problems with pics

Hi All,

I have a problem with posting the pics as mentioned. I thought they were 72 DPI for easy posting but are much bigger. As the older generation I'm still trying to get into the world of computers. Ask my editorial director wife - she'll tell you how dumb I am! But then I tell her that I'm not too bad at writing stories!!

As we don't have scanning facilities at home I'll have the J'oburg to Cape Town article; the new Coupe, the body shop; the final assembly hall, the Noble M12 and the Noble assembly hall re-scanned tomorrow for easier posting.

As it's Boxing day today everything is obviously shut.

Best Wishes,
Andre 40

Andre,

If you have Microsoft "Paint", right click on the photo,

then open with "Paint", then Image, then Stretch and Skew,

You will see the size as 100x100. Just reduce these

numbers, until you find what will work. This will allow you

to shrink and save the photo in a smaller format, for

posting, e-mailing, etc.

If you have Microsoft Picture It or similar, pull the picture up, edit it any way you want and when you hit the save button, look at your choices. There should be one that says something like save to email. In that you can choose the size( in pixels) of the picture. It may even give you a choice of size, quarter, half, or full size. Play with it and then email the pictre to yourself to see how it comes out. Good luck
