Okay, I got seven rolls in processing right now...Please don't expect a lot to be uploaded right away! They'll probably be such high-quality that they will take nearly ten minutes per picture with Photobucket. Which I HOPE doesn't resize them...

I love it GW.

Just because you've only just started taking pictures doesn't mean you're rubbish at it. Because obviously you are not rubbish at photography.
Thanks, Nurv

Edit: Aye, Me not bein' a tree-expert, I dun kno' wether 'em pines be Scot or not

That's why I haven't had an awful lot of potos to show you guys yet; my trial of Picture Exe has expired so now I have no external image resizing program.
Thanks, Lottie!
I don't think i have size-options on my camera (then again I didnt get any manual for it so there might be such options, but I have yet to find them).

I use Paint to desize my pics. It has a special function where you go from 100% both ways and then I usually take 50% each way a couple of times until I'm satisfied it'll fit at the Moot.

For Lotesse and others:

http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...ertoySetup.exe

It's free, 521KB, and allows you to resize by right-clicking on the pic (or a group of pics) and selecting a preset size, or choosing your own dimensions.

Thanks a lot, JT. But I was asked to register it too. Is that necessary?

Seek the function and ye shall find it. And so I haveth done.

You do as JT said. Go to the folder with the pics and right click on it and a meny appears with amongst other functions a resize one.

It isn't a program, it is essentially a filter for Explorer. Using Explorer/My Computer, etc, go to your pic and right-click. In the pop-up menu, look for Resize Pictures (see pic).

Sorry for the delay on my pics. I went to get them, and after waiting in a ten-minute line, they (a girl with gum-smacking attitude, you know what I mean!) said "We won't have it till Tuesday."

TB, I know - such people are among the few things that can really piss me off.

But... it means that you can show us some of them tomorrow?

GW, that windswept tree-pic is really nice.

The following pic of mine was only a what-does-it-look-like-if-I-use-the-maximum-zoom experiment in the morning... but I like how it turned out.

Those are GORGEOUS pics, TB! I saved Zebra Longwing #2. Really nice pics!

I'll never be able to do such closeups of butterflies and flowers with my camera... *sigh* Maybe if I borrow my dad's...
