You need to find a site to host the pics....then use the IMG button to post the link to the pic. photobucket????

Any site suggestions? I'm not sure what is available. I do not have a web site.

I went to photobucket and listed the two embarrassingly HUGE pix of my EGR items a few days ago (mea culpa). Believe me, they really are not bad at all.

Anyway, since I am quite computer ignorant, I went to photobucket' help, and after giggling, it suggested I use, as a start, a size of 800x600. My MGI Photosuite size is 1600x1200 whatzits. I have resized pix when I wanted to combine several on one (1600x1200) pix for eBay auctions and blithely sent it on to eBay, whose system magically took care of all.

So - which size should I make my pix prior to going to photobucket? I have some good ones of my EGR adventure with some new wrinkles in the process.

Thanks,
Tom M.

I find 1024x768 to be a nice size personally...seems to fit fine on the vast majority of people's monitors out there.

I usually resize mine to around 640 x480, just so it will fit nicely in the forum windows. Really, any size around that is good, just be sure to resize them, because when they come off your digital camera, they are huge, to enable good quality printing. And they don't need to be that big for a web page :)
