Sorry for the let down,   
I was hoping, I could work my way thru this photo posting stuff,
just ain't going to happen with me, between 4-6 tonight with zero success.

I'll take new photo with my cell phone in the am, and just maybe it will happen,
off and on for the last 1-2 yrs, I have tried, with no luck.

What I made was some base pins and nose pins to slightly swage OEM pellets to a uniform skirt/head size/diameters,
using a sizing press, it work very well.
I have to size a bunch up and test with Leakin Lena> QB 79 to see the accuracy etc.

Thanks,
Don

I had to go to the camera settings on my phone and turn it to the lowest quality photos and worked fine after that.

A few years ago I found a cell phone with my metal detector and when I had a problem with my regular camera I opted for the cell phone camera but I had to upload the pictures to my computer before I uploaded them here, if you'lre going to upload them here they can't be any bigger than 650k but for a lot of my pictures I've been cropping and formatting them to 1280x720 for uploading to Flickr.  I've noticed that some folks will post gigantic pictures from a 3rd party like flickr etc. and it takes forever for them to load up on this slow DSL and many times I'll exit from the thread not even seeing any of the photos because I wasn't willing to wait that long.

Your computer has the ability to resize photos. Either in the photo viewer program itself or if you download a batch photo resizing tool. Say you view the image in your default photo viewer program. There is edit option to resize, save the resized image (400x600 or smaller) with different name and that small file will upload to any website forum without problems. Our cameras take huge photos anymore, to view them full size would be a poster sized photo. Normal 4x6 inch photos size is around 300x500 pixels.

Same with sending a bunch of photos via email, batch size the lot to smaller and you can attach more than 3 photos to an email. For viewing purpose only not for someone to upload and make quality prints.

I have to crop & resize photos to fit the forums limits.  Assuming you have a Windows 10 computer, there should be a built-in photo editor that can do the basics like crop & resize & convert to jpg. There are other options if you want/need more photo editing power. The GIMP photo editor makes that super easy on my computer which runs on Linux. GIMP is also available for Windows. It is pretty powerful image editing software and is FREE. Perfect for "home" use. More suggestions here.

If you're using Windows 10 you don't need any other software to resize your photos.  Here'a super quick tutorial:

1.  Right click on the photo and from the pull down menu select "Open with" then "Paint".

2.  Once open in "Paint" look at the top of the window and select "resize".

3.  Click on the "Maintain aspect ratio" box.

4.  Scale your photo (by % or pixels, I generally just use pixels and enter 1,200 in the top box).

5.  Save your scaled photo.

Well guys,
I took more photo's with my Samsung c ph,
I finally got the photo's emailed to myself, after 2+ hrs,
I can view these photo's on my PC, they are 8 x 11" in size.

Stretch
I have left and right clicked on everything on the screen with the photo's and nothing happens,
I am running Win 10 system.
I know these photo's are too large in size to post.

I can't go any farther  and getting very mad right now..........
I'll stop right here, until I get the next step..........if possible.

BR
I'll send you the pieces, cause I am right at that point now,
I have been over 6+ hrs today, just to get here.

Tia,
Don

Nvreloader, have you tried uploading your photos to the media center first instead of directly to the thread?
Going that route gives you a link to paste in the thread and less hassle.

[triggertreat]

Don, just use Windows Paint to resize them.  Start with 600 pixels and check the file size.

What are you calling "media center"?

I don't understand what you are talking about.

Thank You,
Don

There is "NO windows Paint" I can find anywhere, on the photo's or on the computer screen.
Where do you find it?

Thank you,
Don

The bar where it says home, forum, search, etc., there is a button that says media. Click on it and set up an album. You can put all your photos there and never have to worry about broken links or any of the other problems associated with the likes of Photobucket or the other third party sites.

Paint comes with MS windows.  Just search for "Paint" within Windows.

Thank you, but there is no clicky to any media spot on home, forum, search bar, etc......

I am looking at the photo's in/on my google email,
I can click in each photo and they show up and I can see them,
and there is no media clicky there also..

I got to have missed a step some where............

Thank you,
Don

It's 2 buttons to the right of the button for your messages and 2 buttons to the left of the donation button. It says media. The bar is just below the header of every page.
