How do I send a larger photo file

[Stewart A.]

I have seen people sending in larger photo files. Every time I go to send a photo the file is always to large. My photos are around jpeg 800 kb to 1 meg in size. The site only allows 298 kb per jpeg photo. How do I get around this.
Go easy on me I'm computer illiterate !!!!!!!!!

Try this site to resize your photos.

Also, for Internet pictures, try shooting them in VGA mode. That's the smaller size.

Stu, these type of questions belong in the "Help Forum". The 298 kb photo is max size for the TDB. Some Members use a service such as photobucket.com Downside to using a service - photo's aren't archive on the TDB. Thanks, Gary....

Here's links to photo resizers depending on your PC operating system:
XP users - Microsoft "Power Toys" picture resizer, page down until you see it http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/D...powertoys.mspx

Vista users - “VSO Resizer” integrates with Vista (recommend by John Hinckley)
