I am trying to post some pics but the message says can not post, pic or file to big. How do I reduce it so that it fits????

Please remember, all I basically know about computers is how to turn them on and the standard microsoft programs.

Thanks.😕

I usually go into Paint and use the stretch/skew button to reduce. (change to 75% horizontal/vertical)

repeat as needed til it fits.

It may not be the file size, per se, but rather the content itself.

No more posting pictures of Eli Manning in a thong. It's one thing to have that poster over your bed, but nobody here wants to see it.

Download and install image resizer

http://download.cnet.com/Image-Resizer-Powertoy-for-Windows-XP/3000-18487_4-10905400.html 

Then find your picture on your computer.

Right click on it

Choose "Resize Picture" from the pop-up menu

Choose the size you want from the pop-up window, then OK.

It will resize the picture and save it as another copy of the same (just resized)

Upload the resized picture

Just open the pic in MSpaint and resize the image. Click on resize hit the pixel button then make your horizontal 700. Do a save as, rename the pic if you want to keep the original and you're done. You should be able to upload the resized pic with no problems.

Thanks guys (especially TG). Tried a few suggestions but I guess I must be doing something wrong ( I admit I hate these F'n things). I'll wait until my kid comes up in a few weeks to help me out.
