Default Help posting pictures

I'm probably gonna get ragged for not using the search first, but can someone tell me how to post pictures using thumbnails so they aren't so big? I finally got some good pictures of my car. Thanks.

You can send them to me and I can host them for you if you want. You can then past the link in as an image. PM me if you want me too and I will give you my email address.

When you are making a post scroll down below the text box and click on "manage attachments" it will allow you to down load a picture from your computer and it will add it to the bottom of your post using the thumbnails. Like this!

ok, let's see. I'll try Becky's suggestion first. Nope, it wouldn't work. Told me my file sizes were too big.

you need to rezie the file to make it smaller.. you can open it in paint and then goto stretch/skew and make it smaller and save it. it would work better if you had a better program like photoshop or something.

There was a place to go and download a resize download. So if you right click it you can resize it. I did that but not sure where i went to get it. I'm lookin for it.

Try saving your pictures as jpeg files, it usaully takes up less space and still big picture.
