Thanks for that Michael...  I just got the Microsoft download.  I`d tried to get `em downsized with my account
with photobucket but it didn`t work out as well as I hoped it would. Now I`ll try the Microstuff & see what
 happens.  Thanks again for your help.

Michael C.:
No problem, that's why were here. We all need help on way or another, like I said though if that doesn't work the easiest way I have found to re-size and save photos is on flickr. It automatically saves them in incremental sizes when you upload it, so you have about 4 to choose from. It's a photo website and I do some amateur photography, so I use it quite a bit. It's easy to link the pictures pretty much any where you like and there's a free account version, which is usually a good word for me.  ;D

Lobo69ss:
   Is that as in www...flickr.com? I`ll check it out tomorrow to see if I`m smart enough
to figure out how to use that one.  I`m not sure if I can post things like a web address
on here without getting busted by the mods... I`ve tried before & got rapped on my
knuckles for the effort, it makes ya wonder what ya can get away with in here, postingwise.

Michael C.:
Yeah I do it all the time you just have to click the insert image button and put your photo url in between the img tags that have the brackets around them.  It's a pain and the only reason I know how to do it is I work with code all the time building websites or it would confuse me too. If you want the link from flickr you just have to click on the little magnify icon to view different image sizes and near the bottom you will see a link you can copy and paste I think it's option 2. Grab the photo's URL: and it should have a link that starts with http://farm3.static.flickr.com/ and then a lot of numbers and forward slashes. Just put that link in between the bracket url from flickr /bracket and your good to go. At least that has worked for me. Old Bow mentioned in another string that the one on here works well, but I haven't taken the time to try and figure it out because the alternative I was used to worked. Hopefully you aren't hopelessly confused by now, sorry if you are.  :( I know resizing images can be an issue and I have to do it for clients all the time because they just don't get it or they don't want to figure it out. I haven't ever known for sure which it is but I think they just weren't able to figure it out. I think I would be in the same boat if I hadn't have gone to school for this stuff, because it is confusing. 

Lobo69ss:
  Just went to Flickr... it looks like a decent program, maybe that`ll be the one I use from now on. 
Thanks again for your help.  Let`s see how they come out now.

  I think maybe I liked it better the other way...  Time to work on the sizing settings I guess.
