Default Re: New Non V20 Gallery

Guys - Lots of folks have 2mb images in their gallery . . . which are HUGE . . . not only do they slow down the site, but they chip away at the bandwidth quota (which will cost money if we exceed) and slows down the site (b/c it takes forever for them to load).

If you are posting pictures and use windows XP. Please resize your photos before you upload them. This is a tool from MS ( powertoy image resizer) that will allow you to resize images easily.

http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...ertoySetup.exe

Once you install the software . . . To resize images . . . just highlight the image(s) . . . RIGHT click, and select resize images (small 640x480 or medium 800x600) will reduce a 2mb file to less than 100kb (20x smaller).

Also . . . please remember NOT to upload copy written images to the gallery.
