Sanity break
« on: June 20, 2006, 08:39:28 AM »
Hi PD's,
Most wednesday evenings a group of us get together for a "Sanity Break" and an evening of boating. I have added a new album with shot from last wednesday. I will try to take some more shot during the season of various models and post them.
Regards,
Gerald

I'm not sure if it's a problem with the photo gallery, but almost all the images are only very small thumbnails Gerald, any chance of some larger images so we can view them in more detail?

Hell, that has to be the first time I've ever asked someone to use MORE space on the website! :-)

Hi Eddy,
Most of the originals are over the 1024k limit, and as I am still learning how to transform and post them they ended up smaller than I had wanted.
I will keep learning and try to get them better, any suggestions are welcome.
Regards,
Gerald

Not a real problem Gerald - Please don't worry about making a small mistake!

To resize photos, you can use  the Windows XP 'Power Toy'  Image Resizer -     http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx  

It's pretty straightforward to use, but if you have any problems, don't be afraid to ask!
