I got free software from cnet.com (they virus check everything - very reliable) that allows me to shrink the size of the file without losing too much clarity. It is called Photoscape and it is very easy to use and allowed me to get the right size photo to load my SS gift.
Terri, you image may be too large - if I remember how your camera takes picture - they would be way larger than could fit in this format - just resize them and try again -- it you see them come on the screen - once you have them uploaded - you are good to go and remember - if they don't show up the first time - don't worry - they will shortly - for some reason there is a delayed reaction - once posted.
Terri/twee please check your PM's. Thanks Caroline
Won't they load because they're too big? I had that problem trying to post over in projects. My harebrained way of getting it to work was to attach the photo to an email and then save the image and THEN upload here to post it. LOL, I am sure there is a much better way of doing it... but, hey, it worked! Good luck! I can't wait to see the pics!
They take a bit longer to upload now Terri, so only do it once, wait a few minutes then refresh the page. Hugs n wishes, Meganne
