: A lovely group of pics John & what software do you use to : compress/resize for posting? Have you tried IrfanView, Wendy? Tap the CTRL+S key when viewing a file then make sure you tell it to save with the .jpg extension, then it will present you with a dialog that asks the amount of compression to employ for the file and you can select 85% for a nice looking .jpg with out being overly sized. Other key combinations with that program: CTRL+R to resize the image, make sure the Keep Aspect Ratio is checked. CTRL+I to change information in the file, if you wanted to add anything like your name or copyright notices. If you open John's file with the IrfanView program and press CTRL+I you'll see where he placed his name in there as the copyright notice. Not sure if he used IrfanView to do all this, but if I were to bet, I'd bet he does. CTRL+R and CTRL+L to rotate it left or right if the picture gets shown sideways. SHIFT+G presents a nice dialog box to change the brightness. I do not mess with the rest of the things, although some nice effects exist to make a border or whatever. CTRL+S to save the file, you can change the name if you don't want to over-write the previously existing file. You can select a different file-type instead of changing the name, because a file with a different extension is a file with a new name. IrfanView prompts if it's going to over-write an existing file. 80% to 85% gives nicely sized files for jpg files while keeping the image sharp. Play around with a few different files giving them new names (make sure they're all in the same folder), then open one and click the arrow buttons in IrfanView to browse and see how changing the percentage affects the image. http://www.irfanview.com/ -- Jim Carlock More Than Five Senses http://www.associatedcontent.com/art...ve_senses.html |

Thanks ever so much Jim, for taking the time to explain. Yes Irfanview is
my favourite but I have never been a user of the Control Keys. I was just curious as to what software posters use for editing images. Thanks again & now going to visit your site.
