So I'm bored and I'm trying to put a picture on here

[12secondv6]

Go to page 2.. special thanks to Earnhardt132000 !!!!



I think I need help.

I think the picture is too big :(

When I right click and go to properties it says:
15.6 MB (16,370,754 bytes)

This is an awesome shot of me at the track launching N/A with one tire off the ground.

I have no idea how to 'shrink' its size.

If it is 'shrinked' you may not see the wheel off the ground.

Any suggestions?

I know!

But..... what way you see the entire launch.

I added it to my desktop and it fits PERFECTLY!

open it up in paint, then Image ---- Stretch/Skew ---- play w/the horizontal/vertical % until it meets either limit. and save as .jpg (maybe even see which extension will keep the resolution at the overall smaller image size)

Its probably a bitmap (.bmp) file. Change it to jp(e)g in paint and see the filesize shrink.

Get Irfanview. That program is great for resizing images.

Heres a link: http://www.irfanview.com/main_download_engl.htm

you might not even need to resize it. just open in paint and click save as. Then theres a pull down bar near the bottom, change it from .bmp to .jpg

Or just email it to me, and ill fix it.
