How To Load Pics?
 
Hi sorry for being dense but how do you load pics , every time i try it says files too large , how do you reduce?:o

To reduce the picture’s size I suggest this small and free program, called, irfanview
http://www.irfanview.com/
Once installed, launch it and open, through the program, the picture you need to resize, clicking on the small folder under "File"

Now select “Image” and then “Resize/Resample”

In the new window select a custom size or use the size presets on the right (like 640 X 480)

Now select “File” (top left) and “save as”. Change the name of the picture (so you’ll not modify the original) and save it wherever you want

Just check that the bar on the right panel is on “best”, so you’ll not loose quality, and that it is a JPG file, for maximum compatibility.

Sorry Carlo i must be doing something wrong, i have reduced the pics as per your directions but it still says " your file of 900.1 kb exceeds limits:confused:
do i win prat of the day award?????????

Which is the file size, after the image reduction?
Should be no more than 200-250 kb in the 640 x 480 resolution.
To check this, right click on the image file, select properties and read the size.
