Pictures which are attached to postings are limited to 50 KB. Use an image editing program to reduce the size of your source image to 50 KB or less. This can be achieved by either reducing the:
- size
- quality or
- colour depth of the image.

Depending on your operating system, personal preferences and skills there is a wide range of image manipulation programs available which can achieve this size control.

A good option for the Windows '9X platform is Paint Shop Pro.

Microsoft have a pwer tool that resizes, so you just right click on the pic to resize and go to 'advanced', I now set mine at 450x400

It only takes a couple of secs with this:thumb
