Ok found the one I used to use

what format is your pic ?

No that doesn't work either, just ends up taking ages and then giving me a blank page.
No idea what format, how would I find out?

I think I'd better get on with something useful as well and let FF get her work finished. Catch you later when Andy or Artha come out to play:rotfl:

You still with us Sue
if you are still struggling I will pm you my email you send it to me I will sort it and send it back

Yep, still struggling, maybe its time I got a new computer or something. Thanks for the offer, but have quite a few wombles I wanted to use. Keep thinking there is something very obvious I am doing wrong.

I use Paint.

1. If you right click on your image and select Open With.. 'Paint' if will open it for you.
2. Then the default menu bar at top, 'Home' bar, has three options vertically on it.. Crop, Resize and Rotate.
3. Select 'Resize'.
4. A dialog will open with: Resize by Percentage with Horizontal and Vertical fields.
5. Forget everything but Horizontal, this is where you need to experiment. I found my camera takes 5.5-6meg pictures which need resizing by 51%. So I enter 51 in Horizontal and press ok.
6. Then Save As, name and format is JPEG.

Jobs a good un.. If looks rubbish and file size tiny try 60 etc if still too big try 45 etc from original image. As I say my camera always gives the same size images, so now I always do 51 for the right results for TCB.

Did anyone see the SuperScrimpers easter egg testing last night? They did a test of three, Cadbury's, Lindt and a Hotel Chocolate one (I can't remember the name of it!). Tested for shine, snap and taste. Well, the winner was the Lindt egg - I could have told them that before they tested as I just lurve Lindt choccie

And did you see them using hair conditioner to clean leather shoes? Bet they'd found that on here when we were trying to find uses for the SP conditioner :rotfl:
