Easy Thumbnails is the simplest program I've found for resizing.

thanks for any help.There are several photo hosting sites that you can join free. You can upload your pics to them, then get URL links that you can post in your MM.net threads. I use Photobucket. It won't matter what size your files are, they will load them in a size that is web friendly, then you can share them with friends, use in emails . . . etc.

If you need any help, let me know. I have to run a few errands, but will be back in a couple hours.

Good luck.

upload to your gallery, make sure you pick where it is going. What it is called etc, where it is coming from...

Then to post, it is simply, copy the properties of the picture, or the address of the picture. And type with your properties pasted here between these brackets

Try this on the internet first, say with http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/images/title.jpg

Then you put the brackets

around it

and it looks like this:
