Re: 4700 - u can call me \"Owner\"

OK- nobody laughs ---RIGHT! - This is my first attempt at entering the world of digital photography and making a picture fly through the air winding up on the other end - I take the picture and then get ready to post as an attachement --- b u t t - picture is 600,000 bytes - looks like the rules say no more than 200,000 bytes - how do this work or am I completely stupid or just un-enlightened??

GVW -

Nobody's laughing -- just waiting anxiously to see the picture! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

It sounds like you've got a fairly high quality image sitting on your hard disk. Way too high quality, or resolution, for viewing on the web. All you gotta do is scale 'er down to something more appropriate for this venue.

You probably got some software with your camera, and dollars to donuts it will allow you to choose a new size. If you can, pick something around 640 x 480 for starters, and save it as a jpg file with, say, medium compression/quality. That should give you a more manageable file size.

You probably don't want to over-write your original file, so use the "Save As" option and give it a new name.

Go ahead -- I'll sit right here and wait. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

<font color=blue>medium compression/quality</font color=blue>

I found in my software, under File, Options, a way to change the JPEG compression to low, medium, or high quality (it was set on medium). Sure wish I knew what that means. I tried changing it, but couldn't tell that anything changed; i.e., size of file, number of pixels, or appearance.

Allll Riiight, gvw, it worked that time; good picture, good looking tractor, and fine looking building behind it, but I'm trying to figure out what that is right in front of the tractor.

OK, now why can't I see that picture? I just get "The Page Cannot Be Found." Does that # sign have anything to do with it?

Bird - that's the 460 backhoe - your looking at the "mounting" side or part that hooks to the tractor. Attached is a view from the rear of the Landpride blade. The barn in the back is 60'X36 - pole barn for hay, horses, toys etc. That was my summer project about 5 years ago. Had help setting the posts and trusses and did the rest my self- fun project.

Re: 4700 - u can call me \"Owner\"

The "#" was the problem - strange but true - and yes this was the morning after delivery - tires are still shiny when I took these- needless to say that is not the current situation. The morning after the GREEN afrrived the wife immedialty decided that a portait of her new GREEN furniture was in order. Thusly preserved for the future reminders.
