Hi Steve i am sorry i cant help with photobucket as i dont use it , i thought it did the pics to the size automatically. I use Photo gadget that Oakwell told me about and i find it ok.:D Eric

i have resized the photos to the biggist size i must be doing something wrong, advice welcome. stevie

[MR Teee]

Download irfanview. Then go to image -> resize/resample and save.

Usual forum size is 800x600.

Then use photobucket as you are doing now.
