Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Download XNview. It works great for resizing and converting images.

Therre is a setting mode in the camera. I set mine to email size ( I forget the setting, 30 maybe). I had it set at 60 and the pics were too big to load anywhere.

I set it to email size, get an account a photobucket.com.(FREE and EZ) Load the pic there. Once it is in an album,you click and copy the link under the pic and paste it here.

To paste it here, click on that little yellow square at the top of this box. (yellow square with mtns and a sun). Paste the link in the box that opens up and post.Voila!
