    I never understaood why digital cameras creates such a huge picture. That seems to be the most common problem that I notice occurs the most often. Good Luck.

    Most cameras if you go under your menu if you reduce the megapixels than that reduces the size of the picture so you don't have to resize them

    You can change the size if you have paint. Switch the view to pixels and change to 640. The image looks the same but isn't so huge.

    ​I never learned how to post from the computer but can from my iPad. There is a sticky in the QB picture section.

    This is ridiculous but where is the QB "picture section?" I'm so technologically challenged! I had to have DH post my pic for me.

    This is the link I use for resizing my photos, (just learned how!). I resize to 75%, seems to be the correct size for this forum. It is easy to use and fast.
