I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

I don't know what kind of tools you have, but it's likely that you need to convert the file into a compressed format, like .jpg. You can probably just open the file in whatever software you have, 'save as' and then pick the .jpg format.

If you have any way to check the actual dimensions of the image, you may need to shrink it down a little, as well. I try not to put anything in my personal locker that's larger than 1024x768.

What kind of image editing software do you have? You refer to 'my photo shop,' but do you have Adobe Photoshop?

If so, I use that every day, so no problem.

Up on the menu bar, go to Image/Image Size and you can resize it there. Lock the dimensions and only set either the width or the height, not both. Changing both numbers will change the aspect of the image and make it look stretched or squashed.

Alternately, if you don't have image editing software you could email the files to me and I'll do it. Just tell me the actual file size before you send them so I don't get yelled at for receiving a 30MB image through email.

You should never used the prospect of getting "yelled at" with a female. I'm sure Mike's "Yeah, send 'em," attitude was more appealing than, "yeah, send 'em, but, I don't wanna get yelled at," scenario. Just my opinion.

It's all so clear to me now.

hey, it is not like that at all, you were trying to help me do it myself, i spent half my night trying to figure it out last night. it was driving me nuts. i really appresiate your help though, i just don't know how to do it, heck i don't know if i have the right programs to do it for myself. i still know nothing about computers at all, kinda sucks, but no one has ever shown me how to do anything, i just fiddle around and try to get it to work. i did manage to get it to look smaller with your suggestions, but it was still to big, and if i took anymore off, it would have taken some off the car. i didn't wanna take off my front end or anything, just the thought of that makes me upset...please don't be mad

The mind wanders.... To take advantage of that opening or be polite... I'll guess I'll just be polite today.
