That thing looks like its about to Transform into a robot. Are you sure its not from the film!


On a seperate note and me being a dumb ass. How do you insert that big size pic into a thread like this. When ever I try to upload a large pic it always fails cause its too big.

[Nik da Greek]

If you do it in PhotoShop, you can resize the pic separate from the amount of memory it takes up, if that makes sense. So, I just use the "resize" command under the "image" menu to make it about 800 pixels wide, cos then it fits on just about any forum. The use the "save for web" function on the "file" menu. It\'ll come up with a comparison of the origanl and new picture files, with a box of instruction to the left. There\'s a slider control in the left-hand box that comes up when you click on the arrow next to "quality". You just adjust the slider so the memory the pic takes up is small enough to post on the site.

To be fair, MRC seems quite generous in how big it allows photos to be, both size and memory. There\'s probably an far easier way to do it but I\'m no certainly no computer genius, so I tend to stick to what I know works! HTH

The other way, I guess, would be to host it on Photobucket or whatever, but I\'ve never got into that, so someone else\'ll have to explain that to both of us!

If you look in the "manage attachments" link from the Reply window, then it shows the MRC board allows a max of 1100 x 1100 pixels on any picture attachment. Anything bigger it will refuse.

Just use photobucket, upload your pics then they give you the html tag code easy peasy

[Nik da Greek]

Not sure that 1100 x1100 pixels would even fit on my screen? :confused:
