Posting Large Pictures

Dave's picture

To all who have problems posting large pictures on this site... derps honi na yo hapot mo...

You need to make those pictures smaller. Pictures taken from cameras larger than 3 mega pixels cannot be posted as their size (in kb) are so large.

Here is how.

1. Open your Paint (MSPaint) program.
2. Click on File, then Open.
3. Select the folder, then the picture you want to post.
4. Click on Image, then click on Stretch/Skew...
5. On the Stretch window, you will find the default to be 100% on both horizontal and vertical.
6. Depending on how large the picture is, change the values of both the horizontal and vertical. Take note that whatever value you give on horizontal should be the same value assigned to the vertical. Some large pictures need 30% values on both to work. Try and play around with it.
7. Save the picture as... and then give it a new name. You may need the original large picture later. I save the reduced pictures in another folder and retain the original in yet another... It's entirely your choice.
8. Once done, simple close the Paint program and post the newly resized picture.

Have fun!
