OT- is anyone really good on the computer???

I'm getting really frustrated with myself.  I'm trying to upload a pic for this forum and it keeps telling me that server cannot be found or file too big.  I don't know how to fix it and I'd really like to put a pic up.  I think having a pic up kind of helps you to get to know someone a little better.  You know, a picture says a thousand words.  Please help me before I break my computer.

Ok. When it tells you the pic is too big. You can go to paint(if you have it on your comp which you should). Go to file, click open. Find the picture you want. And open it up.

When the picture appears go to image. Click on Stretch/Skew. Under stretch you can make it smaller by putting in like 50% instead of the 100% its at. That will make the picture smaller by, you guessed it, 50%. Since on here the pics come up small so it doesnt really matter! Save it under something other then its original name so you have both sizes. And try to upload the smaller one. Keep doing it until it works!

Thats what I always did when I uploaded my pics from my digital camera! They come out HUGE so I know what you mean! If theyre digital pics anyways lol. Hope this helps!

Did you scan the pic on your computer. If so you need to Re-size it My best guess iis it just look around on the tool bar to find the re-size thing......
