I was not thinking of dropping anyone yet, but I saw 3 people post on here that they had mailed and giving hints so I think they have the hang of it. That is what upset me.

It is really easy to use. After you download and install all you have to do is RIGHT click on a picture and select the "Resize Pictures" you will get a pop up window that will let you select from one of THREE options OR you can even do a custom resize. You can even select if you want it to resize the original picture or make a resized copy. Here is the LINK for downloading the program. ONLY download IF you have Windows Vista or 7. If you are still using Windows XP you will need to get the older version. Here is the link for the XP version of the picture resizer Good luck and I HOPE this may help some (or all) of you who seem to be having troubles with resizing. I would like to know if this helps anyone. |
The program works great and it is so easy to use. Thank you so much Louise.If anyone else uses it this is at medium size.Isn't my girl cute getting out of the bath.She's really about 11" tall.Almost life size on here.Thanks again Louise.Mary

I have a picture of Charles in the Tshirt that Krystyna sent him, I even resized it ...BUT how do I post it?
|
Airwick write a reply and then hit GO ADVANCED then click on the little button that has a tree icon in it. Scroll over all icon till you find it.It will say Image. then click on browse. click on your picture so it will show in the box next to browse.then click download then hit post quick reply. Goodluck Mary

Mary I am so proud of you!!! You sound like a pro and until a few days ago you couldn't even post a picture. You Go Girl!!!
|
I know huh! I just been telling people over and over so I think it is finally sticking in my head.How is Miss Marty doing? and how is the quilt and tote doing? Mary

lori i will do my best to remember to do pm's. though the wallpaper background color was changed a bit from the screaming white, the text colors are still playing havoc with my eyes so i am on the board for very small snippets of time now. plus i keep getting booted or signed off the board.
just as an fyi to all, i have toggled my settings many a time but nothing has met my satisfaction to date. the board screen colors are much to difficult on my eyes for me to be on here any length of time. i am still in the swap and will be mailing my packages on nov 14th, the deadline date. tomm (the other missouri mary)

I think that blue/green dot next to the person's name shows if they are on or not. If it's plain without any color, then they're not.

I am so tired I have to hit the hay, nite all!

Right next to your user name and password is a box to check that says remember me. Check that and you should be good to go. Thanks Verna. It seems to have fixed my problem. |

I have tried and tried to re-size my photos and still can't get them posted. What ever am I going to do??? Anybody Mac savvy to help me figure it out??? I've copied the photo from my desktop and tried different things to re-size and then try to post them here....no dice. Grrrr!!! Yet, was able to post a photo that was taken from an iPhone (but not my phone). :( What's a body to do??? Help!!!
|
Quilty Lousie your swap is very nice love the purse and fabrics.The patterns are really cute too.Mary
|
Poor leiladylei I wish I could help you. All I know is everyone seems to shrink their pictures down and then they post. I know nothing about Mac.The picture from your friends phone may have been small enough to post already.Good Luck I hope someone on here helps soon. Mary

The rules DO NOT state specific NO-NO's in signitures. They do discourage religious and polical content in discussion, Which makes it a safe place to NOT rant and rave about these 2 sensitive topics. I am assuming, if the BOARD does not approve, they would send out a gentle PM stating their opinion or reminder concerning any changes needed.

- Profile signatures should not include scriptural quotes or other forms of proselytizing, testifying, and sermonizing. Requests for prayers are permitted only in Members’ Blogs. They are the only overtly religious posts for which we allow exceptions when it's possible and practical. - Profile signatures should not include political statements or content that could easily be interpreted as such. - Non-compliant signatures will be edited or removed upon discovery and without notice. Deliberate re-placement of non-compliant signatures that have been corrected by Administrators or Moderators shall be considered a violation. There will be no pm sent. It will be removed. I didn't want anyone to think if it was removed that it was an issue with the new platform and put it back only to be in trouble. It's a shame that it's like this. |

I wanted to let yall know I got MsCupid804. Oh she wasn't kidding, that was one full box. It was a little bit of EVERYTHING. I am going to try and attach a picture. After all the commentary and the difficulty of this feat, I do not have high hopes. If the picture does come up, I don't think I have everything pictured. I got the box as we were leaving this morn. Which means while I was driving, there were 3 females in the back that sew, digging through the box! Oh and the candy.... yes it is about gone. Don't judg me LOL, it was my favorite and I WAS in a car all day! Which means the car air freshner was the first thing to get opened, now my van smells like apples :D
Thank you Teresa! It was a purely AWESOME box, the entire Fertig clan is in agreement! |
I just found out a second cousin (My Dad's cousin) of mine in Michigan died this morning. Nobody in our family even knew about it......noone called anybody in our family.....none of my Dad's siblings even knew about it. I told my Dad after I found out about it after reading about it on facebook after his wife posted something. He owned his own contrusction company and was hanging shingles and the building started to shake and he fell and landed on his head and broke his neck. He was only 55 years old.
