Coco, I snap my photos as *large* as possible, then you have a decent photo for your records, it's good if you ever want to view the fine detail. You can always make them smaller without losing the fine detail, but you can't make them larger and keep the fine detail. Use a graphics/photo program to make them smaller. If you make them approx 500-700 pixels, or between 150-250kb, they should be the right size for posting as a project. You can post them larger if you want, but I think some folks have had problems posting then. Hugs and a flower sweetie.

Coco, before you resize, see if you can *crop* any excess background, and then resize.

I'm guessing 640 by 480, which is fine if you are using this photo for posting.
If you are wanting to save this as a permanent photo for your collection then it is not recommended due to poor resolution. If you have software that can resize the better quality photo, then that would be the ideal choice. I hope this helped!!!

yes, I'm with you on this one, but I think if I play around with the settings on camera I've seen something about sizing and so I'll give it a whirl-LOL...***4u2

You can do it that way OR you can download your photo into your program and adjust it size wise there.;)
