uploading photos

[defender90]

 I keep trying to upload photos of my car to share with you all but i'm not very computer literate. Every time I try to upload I get the message file too big, I lowered the picture setting on my camera from 5m 204 frames to 3m 325 frames and then to 2m 409 frames and the files are still too large. How small do they have to be?
 John (jay bee) recently took some pictures on his phone for me and even those files are too big?
  I get very thrustrated with what to me are very technical computer issues that I struggle to understand, flaming computers ARGGGGGGH! I would much prefer a severe case of spanner rash!!!!

what operating system are you using?

Hi Chris

  Windows Vista

[ChrisRLewis]

try using this add on program for reducing image sizes
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phototoysclone/

it's just then a matter of resizing the large original image, right click on the original image, in the drop down menu list find 'Resize Pictures' - Left click 'Resize Pictures' - use the Small 640 x 480 option. This will then create an additional image with (Small) at the end of the file name.

The new image should then be ok for uploading to the forum (also ok for emailing)

Good luck

Chris

is that the 126 "bambino" which recently sold on ebay for a healthy price?

 No I've owned this for a while now, but I'm only just figuring out digital photography, saving and uploading , image resizing (Thanks again Chris) etc.
  Tells us more about the 'Bambino' though, what was a ' healthy price'?

 I think the "bambino" Jose is talking about made around 2k on Ebay. I was very surprised as it was a late 126p and LHD. Had some nice touches thought...
