    Juli....sorry, I didn't take a photo of the swap box...have you tried to re-size your photo??? I have a Mac computer so I only know how to re-size on a Mac. Any other helpers out there???
    I resize with Photoshop.

    Windows has Paint. It is a simple program.

    Right click on the photo icon and select "Open With Paint"
    Choose EDIT and SELECT ALL
    Choose IMAGE and select ATTRIBUTES.
    It'll show a Width # and a Length # in Pixels.
    Just Halve that, basically. If the number is 500 in both boxes then type in 250 in each box.
    You may have to futz with it a few times to get it to the size you want.

    It's not perfect, but better than nothing

    Received my package from Krystyna. It was a wonderful package. Of course the best was her embroidered angel, and the wonderful pincushion from a shell she gathered on her beach. She posted a picture of it earlier in the swap, it is next to the set of fabric squares-8' sq in an artists pallette of colors. Also had some clamps, a magazine, 2 patterns, an embroidered pincushions, with crosses surrounding a beautiful center, a box of tea, the melt in your mouth Lindor truffles bar which I saved to share with my DH today, and her infamous Chinese snacks-slivered almonds and slivered fish. She challenged me in her note if I was brave enough to try them. I was brave enough to try them. I must say they were probably the most unusual thing I've gotten so far in the swaps. I still prefer the Lindor though. Thank you for a delightful package. I'll be sure to post on the board in pictures when I make something with the squares.

    Ok I did get my package out today, so if you are still waiting it could be coming to you. I do think my sp will be surprised when it arrives. Not saying why yet.

    Hi Louise, it sounds like some of your settings may have gotten changed some how. Go to settings and then general settings. Under Thread Display Options make sure that for visible post elements that show images is checked. And under Miscellaneous Options for message editor interface that Enhanced interface is marked. Then click save changes at bottom. I hope this helps.

    I got my SP package today. When I went out to run errands this afternoon it was by my front door. It must have been sitting there all night as the mail doesn't come until the late afternoon. The mail man must have been really late yesterday as I had checked the mail about 5:30 last night and there was nothing. I will post pictures tomorrow

    Yep I already did all that nothing helped.

    After my third uninstall and reinstall I can now change colors,
    fonts, and all other stuff. Including uploading pictures.

    BUT all the icons are still missing on the icon bar, but at least
    they now work.

    Will be getting my first sp package pics uploaded SOON.
