What is the best way to resize images on this forums image host? My pics on file are too large.

I thought this site sized them automatically. If that doesn't work you can upload them to a photobucket.com account and then resize and post the IMG code from the site.
Good luck, Dan

I have a limit as to the size of file.. I don't want to clutter up the server with Huge Files..
I recomend installing a program like this on your computer, and it will easily create files that are not Huge.
http://www.vso-software.fr/products/ima ... esizer.phpOnce you install this program on your computer, All You need to do is
#1 Right click you mouse on the image you want to upload
#2 Select the VSO Resizer (click Continue)
#3 select what size you want to save it as (profile). I recomend 640X480
#4 Click OK
Then it will automatically create a new file that will work and will upload faster also.. .

How many kbites does my pic need to be to pop up full size@ 640x480? I resized them to 640x480 but they pop up on my posts the size of an avitar. most of my pics download to my computor from my camera between 1 and 2 mega bites. I have the vso software, but these pics start out so big that I can't even get them to 6.84 kbs for an avitar. about the smallest I have got them so far is 40kbs.

Houndnem,
I don't know, I normally just resize to desktop resolution and like to see the images under 100-200Kb.
I don't know why your messing with 7Kb stuff way to small.
Just try the desktop resolution and let it pick the size.

Ive been using this VSO software for several years. One very nice thing about it is that you can open your photo files and choose a whole bunch of photos and resize them at the same time instead of resizeing one photo at a time. It's very fast. It dds another photo back to the same file as the original photo but of smaller size.
