Hey Ron, I use Paint Shop Pro. I can't figure out how to reduce the image file size so pics can be posted. Sometime I can copy/paste a portion and that works. Most times I cannot successfully reduce the color count to make the image smaller (under 40K I think it is). What graphics program do you recommend to reduce "quality" of pics and thus image file size for posting??

Ernie:

Put the pic. in your rhoto gallery and then use the img button to put it into your post.

Excaliber,


Resize the picture before you save it. :rolleyes:

With PSP, it's easy to compress files.

File>export>jpeg-optimizer will give you a preview of the final picture. Depending on the picture details, 15-30 compression will lose little detail.

At the Crawford Auto Museum, here in Cleveland, they have a fiberglass bodied go-kart dressed up as a GT40 (pretty obvious).

A small child would have had a hard time getting into this thing, it is about six feet long. At my last visit, I overheard this guy tell his wife and kids that it was a Ford Pantera and that "Ford stopped making them because they were so small, they were too dificult to manufacture"... she was amazed that it was a 'real' car - ugh!

Little more info. Tube frame,full coil-over, double A-arm suspension, rack-n-pinion steering,disc brakes,aluminum wheels,9" wide racing sliks,5-13 hp Honda moters,Kirky racing seat. Room for "kids" as large as 6'2".Look closely, the roof comes off,turning it into a roadster.The rear section hinges to service the engine. They're 95" long so they can fit in the back of a pick-up or van. Also have 427 and 289 FIA cobras built the same way.Next car will be '63 Gran-sport 'Vette, Chaparall, or ?????
