t... When I open the post I can't get the picture - and some of the commands are greyed so I can't, for instance, reply :-( I want to see the picture! I'm sorry Mary. Normally my posts to this group are 1024 pixels wide - plus or minus a little. I actually shot this one several months back and posted it at that smaller size way back when. I was going through my files to see what I should keep at the end of the year and what I should toss out and I sort of rediscovered this one. I recently bought a big 24" wide 16:9 ratio flat screen monitor and I thought this pic might look pretty good as my desktop. But to get the most out of it I couldn't use the old reduced size and then "stretch it" to fit the big screen so I redid it from the .NEF(RAW) at the full size with no cropping at all. Wow! Anybody who likes hummingbirds and has one of these newer flat screen monitors may enjoy this larger post. That's the only reason I sent it full-sized like that. Sorry it caused a problem. I know a lot of people have set their newsreaders to reject large files like this so a lot of folks may not even know what we're talking about here. Anyway...to the picture! First I've got a hunch you might be able to see it if you use a little trick I'll tell you about. I checked and you're using Microsoft Outlook Express. Open up the file. Now - go to the "Attach:" line just below the "Subject:" line. Click on the little icon there, labeled DSC_0029.jpg. That should open it up in your Windows Photo Gallery program - or Windows Picture Viewer. The program should automatically resize the pic for viewing. Some of it may hang over the RH and LH edges if you've got a monitor with a 4:3 width to height ratio but that's not important stuff to the picture. At that point you can save it to your hard drive if you like, and you can also reduce its size. If all the above fails the second thing I'll do is send a smaller version of it. It'll still be pretty good but it will be at much lower resolution. -- Paddy's Pig |

I actually shot this one several months back and posted it at that smaller size way back when. In that case I might already have it! I save most of your pictures and all the hummers, they're not used anywhere else, they just keep giving me a lot of pleasure. .... Anyway...to the picture! First I've got a hunch you might be able to see it if you use a little trick I'll tell you about. I checked and you're using Microsoft Outlook Express. Open up the file. Now - go to the "Attach:" line just below the "Subject:" line. Well, there wasn't one :-( But read on ... In frustration I hit every other key and when I hit 'Tools' the picture appeared, that is, a small corner of the picture appeared. So I right clicked and told it to be saved with all the others. .... If all the above fails the second thing I'll do is send a smaller version of it. It'll still be pretty good but it will be at much lower resolution. I'll have a look later but have to make dinner. In the meantime, thank you VERY much - and I'll report tomorrow. :-)))))))))) Mary |
