Okay I've had a little help from the other half, I'm just seeing if this works. Sorry for the same picture!!!

It worked! Yey! We don't mind seeing the same picture, it just means all that technological gobbledegook made sense! And you know how to do it next time! Happy to help. qwiksave.

Yeah, hurrah!!! Thanks a lot quiksave I figured out how to do it, sort of! It wouldn't let me resize it once it had uploaded, so I had to change the dimensions before I uploaded it, does that make sense?????

Hiya Melissa, I'm also burning the midnight oil! Im a bit confused - The instructions I gave were how to resize it once you've uploaded it, but if you can resize it on your computer before you put it on photobucket that method works fine too. The main thing is you've mastered it :T - and we get to see more of your wonderful cards! :T

Good morning :wave:

Polly has asked me to post the new challenge today:

this week it will be aperture cards

Any style you like, birthdays, mens, thank you's etc as long as it got an aperture. Doesn't have to be big, you can just cut or punch a small hole in your card, or several, it is up to you. Looking forward to seeing your cards!

Very impressive shaz-mum-of-2, I can't believe that's your first attempt! Did you write the greeting on yourself - it looks very professional!
Quicksave - I tried to resize the picture once it had uploaded, but it just kept saying "windows has encountered a problem and needs to close", - aaaaahhhh, so I managed to work around it!

Hi Shaz, I'm a newbie on here too, love your card!!! You are obviously very creative and need to make more cards! Well done. Could you post some thing on here about how you made your card - I for one am very interested to find out more!

Hi melissa75 - love your card, very cute! Could you please let me know how you resized the pic as I am very not-technical and can't work it out in Photobucket so if there's another way...

Thanks!

Hi rainmac, before I hit the upload button I clicked on the box underneath which said "reduce to", and then I chose 640x480 (large) to change it. I had to do this as for some reason it wouldn't let me resize it once it had uploaded!
