Joined: October 2005 Posts: 803 Location: Avondale, AZ | Ok so now I have tried using paint and even after selecting all it still comes out just a little piece of the picture after I tried changing the pixel size to 500. This is really fustrating because I have two pictures of me with my Breadwinner Limited and one of it alone. They were taken just before I shipped to its new home. | ||

If the picture is 1200 pixels wide, then making it 40% of it's original size would be around 480. If the images are under 100k in size, just upload them and the board software will resize them. | ||

Joined: October 2005 Posts: 803 Location: Avondale, AZ | Sorry Waskel, I guess you weren't reading closely enough. I sold the limited the pictures were taken right before I shipped it off to its new home. Besides if I sent the guitar to you, how would I be in the picture? | ||

Go to the menu choice IMAGE, and then select RESIZE. Keep the "ratio" box checked, and then select a width you want (i.e. 500) then SAVE AS ... and you're good to go. | ||

Joined: October 2005 Posts: 803 Location: Avondale, AZ | Ok I got it to work in paint using the skew, stretch and then saved them. Now they are all under 500 pixels and the gallery still took over 15 minutes and the first one wasn't finished loading. Something else must be wrong. This is really disappointing because not only is the guitar beautiful, I am rather hansom too. | ||

Joined: October 2005 Posts: 803 Location: Avondale, AZ | Ok, now I shrunk the picture sizes even more than required and I got on the gallery. I tried the map and it still didn't work. I tried it again with my neighboring zip code and it did work. The pictures are a little small but you can still tell that it was a beautiful guitar. However, my good looks are harder to see. | ||
