That's a good one. Fast and easy, and the unaltered original is still there in the original file. The resized version is the one with the 400 tag. Thanks BB!

I have tried several time to upload picture to my post. It allowed me to edit the text, and I browsed and uploaded each photo. However, when I click post or preview nothing happens and they do not appear on my post.
Thanks for any help...

[cool][#0000ff]The most common mistake made by folks first trying to post pictures is to check the "inline" box. That will keep them from showing at the bottom. If you truly want them to appear in the body of your text (inline) you have to go through the process of clicking on the right button and moving them to the main message. Just uncheck the inline box for now and practice on the rest.[/#0000ff]

You just have to take a step back, and it's already in the [url "http://www.bigfishtackle.com/forum/Utah_Fishing_Forum_C55/gforum.cgi?post=409887;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;page=unread#unread"]HELP [/url]section.
I've seen two versions of the resize app. One of them adds functionality to the RIGHT CLICK menu, so you can just right-click your file and choose "RESIZE FOR BFT", no dragging, dropping, nor nuthin. (see attachment)
I have found one of the apps seems to not only resize, but also appears to affect the picture quality. More pixelly.
The old "size" limit was lifted sometime back. BUT I would suggest - particularly if you do post a pic inline - that it's beneficial to resize. I've made that mistake, and sometimes - especially if a thread gets longer - it's hard to read as it loads the pictures - they first come in full size, then get resized - so the window bounces all around.
Plus - some may have slower connections, and it can take a while to download a 2Gb file.
