I am sorry, I know this is not a dumb question just one tht has been asked and answered. But...how do you post a picture? I have tried to follow all of the instructions given and I am soooo confused. I know I need to make the picture smaller. I am using Windows XP and Micrsoft Picture It Photo.
I wrote down all of the instructions and even saved them into Word but I still don't get it. I can't find an edit image size place. I have tried other words too. Please help! I really would like to share my babies with this world because of course they are the cutest kitties ever.
Thanks

Your pictures have to be no larger than 400 x 400 pixels and no larger than 33k to attach them to posts.

If you'd like, you can email me your pictures, I can resize them and post them for you. My email is [email protected]

If you have Windows, then you have Paint, which you can also resize photos in. Open your picture using Paint (in the Accessories section of the Start Menu), then click on Image, then Attributes. This is where you resize and in Paint it automatically comes up in Pixels. It may be the same file menu in Picture It, so check that option too. I just don't have Picture It on this computer, so I don't know for sure.

Hope this helps!

Well I went to paint and did exactly as told. I tired then to send the pictures. I waited over 10 minutes for the thread to come up but it never did, I had to go to bed so I stopped it.
Jenn, if I email my pictures to you how will you be able to post them? Would you email tehm back to me in smaller size?
Thanks for teh help.

I had trouble at first. I followed the instructions exactly and it didn't work. But I tried again, exactly the same and walla, it worked????go figure.
Also, the is a free program that you can download that works great to resize if you don't want to upload them to imagestation or some other web site. It is www.irfanview.com . Good luck and keep trying.

I would resize them, and either post them as attachments for you, or I could send them back to your email for you to post them. Either way is fine with me. If you have a space online, or want to join www.imagestation.com (it's free to do) you can load the pictures there, then post them here using the

Jenn,
I don't like to download thigns from "out" there. I have had very bad experiences with different things. I will email them to you and you can do which ever is easiest for you.If you post them for me how do I get them or are they just there somewhere? LOL I am really coinfused, can you tell? I don't know if I can send more than 1 picture at a time so you may get more than 1 email. Sorry. Thanks

You are most welcome to email me with the photos. I checked my email, but I haven't gotten any from you. And if you want me to post the pictures for you, they'll be right in this thread or in another thread that I can title "gert452000's cats"
Anyway, I await the pictures
