Refile it, then when you are ready to post it use the one that is listed for forums. I do mine in jpg. shotout

Cropping still eludes me. NRA Endowment member LECS #2

If they don't want to wait 15 minutes for the picture to download on their computer (dial-up) they just don't click on the thumbnail. If they really, really want to see those proof stamps up close and personal - then they can click on it.... For "general use" posting photos with a 640x480 format such as shotout/skeyed uses is perfectly fine. It is what most people do, most of the time. It's when you start posting HG format photos (ie. 1024x768 and such...) here on the website, is when it causes problems. I do the same thing with "general" pictures (try to keep the size down) but when I need to show something in great detail, I will use a thumbnail here and a monsterous HG photo sitting on photobucket. You don't have to stick to "one or the other". Mix it up! --------------------------- He who lives by the sword, should go out and get a really nice sword.

I have beating my head against the wall trying to crop the photos on Photobucket and make them "stick" there; lost a couple of my Photobucket file photos during my attempts but got them reloaded with no trouble.

Have you been able to successfully crop a photo and view the result? It seems like you have, but just haven't been "saving" the new photo in your file / album? Does that sound accurate? Regards, HP p.s. You might want to get as close as you can to your "subject", so you don't have to do much cropping - if at all..... hth. --------------------------- He who lives by the sword, should go out and get a really nice sword.
