    Hey BD, Janagolf may need to be walked through resizing photos, too. I put a new folder in MY Documents, used my photo program to 'save as' a copy of the photo I wanted to upload, and set the size smaller keeping the ratio the same. (And i am probably confusing Janagolf even more!) Once the resized photos have been saved, they can be uploaded from advanced reply section, not from the quick reply.

    Thanks! I finally finished the video on How to add an attachment to a post. It can be viewed in the ORCHIDTALK HELP VIDEOS page.

    Did you get a program with your camera? Usually these are pretty good at doing what you need.

    Glad to see this thread...was just looking at Photoshop Elements online, and trying to figure out what exactly it does/doesn't do. I think I will try GIMP first...you can't hardly beat "free" with a stick!
