re: uploading pictures Monday, June 16, 2003 at 8:17 am Posted by Ricer46 (22013 messages posted) What do you mean by "I cannot upload it?" Properly that would imply you are trying to put it on a web server. Are you trying to email it? If so your ISP may have a file size limitation. There are a number of utilities that can be used to resize graphic files. One excellent free one is Irfanview.

Here is specifically what I mean by upload: I was sent a form by a company that asked me to upload a picture. They have a place on the form called ipix. I click twice on it, use the browser to find the picture in my computer, and it puts it on the spot that said ipix. Then I push upload. The pictures I took with another camera were fine. So, no, I'm not emailing the pictures. Does this make sense? Thanks.

You now have two different suggestions on free software tools to resize your pictures. On Monday, June 16, 2003 at 9:19 am, Terry wrote: >Thank you for such a prompt reply.
