Lake-link.com, Search for Image Converter. Should be able to save your image to your computer at the new size. Good Luck

You can also open your pictures in "microsoft picture manager" and do it there too...just click edit and compress picture i beleive...

Oh yeah, and also if you have a digital camera you can usually change the default size of the pic in your cameras settings menu...

Hi Anglers,
Luv2fish hit it right on the nose ... basically all digital cameras on the market will allow you to change default settings for pict size. (e.i. 2300+, 1600, 1280, 768, etc. .. keep in mind all camera manufactures have different various sizes!) I will ask Eric or the webmaster what a good default size is for posting picts on wibigfish. I like 1280, 1024 sizes ... which is good quality but will not taking up as much space. PNG format is going to be the future web front runner soon.

Thx ~ Blue Pike

I use a program called Picasa.com and Hello.com to store my photos and it has an easy resizing tool plus you can fix your photos as well along with sharing them with family and friends.

Thx BigMusky,

I will make a note of the files sizes for posting. I use photoshop
to edit and resize my photos. The net has many free editors available
either at download.com or versiontracker.com for all platforms.

Best of luck anglers ... Blue Pike
