Nobody wants to scroll around for the whole picture especially when the JD won't resize it to fit your screen. Unless you're really lazy, leave it at the whopping 1800xWhatever size it comes as. That just takes more space on the site (not a good thing).

ThinkTank Unmasked Offline --> Posts: 4,282 --> Join Date: Feb 2008	i got the irfan and it seems like it resized the pic ok, but then it wouldn't upload. SOmething about an invalid extension. Where should i save the picture to after resizing it in irfan? i put the pic in a pre existing folder and it would upload from there. I am practically computer illiterate, so keep it simple if you can. __________________ thinktankproduction.com
