    Default resizing pictures

    For those of you having trouble resizing your pictures,
    I HIGHLY recommend downloading, installing and TRYING
    this image resizer.

    I have been using it for several years (since I had Windows XP).
    Its easy to use, just follow the steps on the website.


    Good Luck and I hope if you try this it will work for you also.

    I have tried several times to contact my partner for her address. Since she has no responded to any of my messages I will be keeping my doll quilt. I will no longer be participating in this board as I find it much to stressful. I don't need stress in my life.

    So sorry your partner disappeared. I knew we might lose some swappers with the board change, but I hope the doll quilt swap will always remain stress-free. We're just here to have fun. Perhaps one of the other November swappers are in the same situation and will swap with you.

    The January swap already has 60 swappers, so I'm very happy that many of you are still playing.

    Oh no! You have been such a wonderful participant. I know how frustrating it can be when your partner doesn't respond at all or worse yet doesn't acknowledge what you've sent! I know the changes here have been challenging, but I hope that maybe after a little hiatus you'll be back. You will be missed a LOT.

    I have enjoyed this swap. Was grateful for a little delay in me getting my November out because of injury and funeral. Was well worth it. I hope you stay with us. I know this new site is a bit stressful, but if we all work thru it together, we will have even more fun swapping.

    You ladies have any ideas on a good setting block that would make my 13 other blocks made fit together as one unit. I did a swap with a fabric, got beautiful blocks back, but they just do not work together well. Thought if I made a good setting block the same that they would look good instead of using a solid block. Ideas would be helpful.

    Thank you Krystyna. You have said it much better than I could. I completely agree.

    Doll quilt swappers are the best. What new board?! We found each other again and we're all set to keep on having fun. I love how encouraging everyone is and I know the tips about posting photos will be helpful to many. [Thank you!] Hang in there with us because we would truly miss anyone if you left. If you need help, just ask right here. I can bet our fellow swappers have helpful info to guide you. If not, I'll appeal to the top dogs and we'll get you an answer. Above all, have fun!

    I found a free program on the Web: Easy Thumbnails. It has worked very well for me to make the pics on my computer much smaller and load onto QB quite easily. It downloaded very quickly and makes the 'thumbnails' super fast.
