I bought a digtal camera yesterday and took some pics of the Formula, But how do I post them here on the board????

Thanks

 

Go to Paint, open the file, then click ctrl+w, now resize to about 40% or so. Resave the file as a different name so you can save the original too, and save it as a jpg file. Now when you post scroll down to the attachment area and click browse and find the file on your HD.

 

lol!

 

This should help

ok, after I resized it, the only save option I have is a bmp or dib file ?? How do I get it to a jpg?

Thanks

 

Just type the file name you want, and put .jpg at the end that should do it. I don't understand why there is no option for jpg though.

 

test...

 

Dam........

 

sorry about the blank post, but I cant seem to get this to work????????????

 

test again..

 

..

 

take 14...

 

What exactly are you doing, are you going down to the browse button and selecting a file?

 

yeah, I hit the browse button and pick the picture and it loads, but it doesnt show up???
WTF man

 

hmm, what type of file are you picking? jpg, bmp? the file isn't too big is it, it will give an error message if it is.

 

its a JPEG and it 3.48Mb......

 

It's too big.

 

well, holy crap, lol, it has to be less than about 1.2mb

downsize it a bit more and retry.

 

Man, Im doing something wrong!! No matter how small I resize it, its 3.48 Mb in my pictures.. I can barley see the car its so small,just the blank page with a 2" pic of my car in the top left corner??
Like its not resizing the page, just the pic??

Im 30 years old and am still learning all this PC sh*t.

Thanks for your help Mark!!

 

LOL, you sound just like my brother, ok let's start over.

Go to Paint, open your file.
click ctrl+w now resize to about let's just say 35%.
Now, go to save as, and just save it as this file for now , pic.jpg, now try to attach again.

Do this also, click your mouse somewhere on the pic, so the pic isnt' selected that should help.

 

its still 3.48 Mb??

Do you have aim?

 

Actually try this too, when you downsize the pic, where all that white area is, scroll all the way down and to the left, and drag the white box in to so that it is just surrounding the pic. Where there will be no more white box.

 

aim=buffshields350

 

Maybe??

 

Take 152..

 

Here ya go, larger one.

 

!!!!!!

 

just kidding the pix R there. Nice rimz.

 

test again;;

 

Congrats.

 

just trying my hand at pics
