Hi folks. When you want to upload your pictures, you may find that they are too large for the forums. We've placed a limit on the file size of pictures so that they don't become too wide for our layout.
You must be a registered member to post to the forums. If you do not have an image processing program or are unfamiliar with scaling images for the web, we have a suggestion: Create your own user gallery of images [Click on the Tacky Galleries link and create your gallery]. This gallery will upload and scale your images for you. It will preserve the original size, show a set of thumbnails, and display a medium sized image. The medium sized images will fit in our forums. Here is what you do:
Once your images are uploaded into your gallery, click on the thumbnail image of the picture you want to post to the forums. Then Right Click [or Control Click on the Mac] on the larger image that is displayed. Choose SAVE IMAGE AS.... and save the image to your desktop or somewhere you can find it easily. Then, when you want to post it to the forum, select the image you have just downloaded to your desktop and upload it! VoilĂ !
Maximum image sizes are 400px wide, 600px tall, and 1 megabyte in size.
