Pics are great - how to reduce the file size
« on: August 25, 2005, 01:54:02 PM »
We  don't all have broadband connections and it's a pain waiting for file to load that are 200-300-400kb is size.

Here's a nifty little image resizer that works really well, with a short download time.

Agreed, although I do have brodaband, but I don't need a picture that's five times the size of my monitor!

There was a discussion a while back regarding file sizes and suggesting that everyone keep their images below 100K, for diail-up issues as well as to conserve server space.  But with this many members and no actual limit on file sizes, it will continue to happen.
