Gosh Mosken, I had completely forgotten this pic was on the Board! Must have been shortly after we moved from Ezboard and we were testing out how to avatars and pics here at Yuku!

Selling something, yes it does looks like that.

My friend was trying to take a picture of me with one of my cats and just as she was about to take the pic, my cat ran off leaving me laughing and holding out my hands in...

Alice, you are such an angel

I've had a little test run with your information, and I love the resizing in post editor itself! It makes it so much easier, especially if the pic is already low pixels.

Thought I'd do a little...

Ok Alice, now you have COMPLETELY lost me. Don't forget, I don't do much ? You may as well have written all that in Norwegian, because I understood it as much as I would understand your language! So that IS in ENGLISH... is that what you are telling me? Yes, I'm thankful, thankful that I don't have to have a clue as to what you are saying because I'm VERY THANKFUL that my kids...

Right click on the photo, and choose Properties. (don't mind the heading on my example - it's in Norwegian

2. to reduce the number of bytes so the page will be easier to load for those with slow Internet connections (e.g dial-up's)

How to do it:

1.

The best way to do it is if you have a picture processing software on your computer and...
