:idea: :idea: INSTRUCTIONS POSTED BY DADBA :idea: :idea:
Uploading your pictures onto your post
You need to download a visual re sizer onto your computer.
Try this - http://www.freeimagebrowser.com/resize/
Once you have it downloaded they are very easy to use.
Re size a picture from your pictures and save the new size back to your pictures then click on upload in the club gallery section.
Browse till you find your re sized picture then upload to gallery.
If the new size picture is too big it wont upload onto the gallery therefore go back to your re sizer and re size smaller.
Once your picture is on the gallery open it to its biggest size & right click on it, tap properties, hover over address URL & right click again, tap the 'select all' bit which will now highlight 'address URL', right click again, tap copy.
Come out of the gallery altogether and go into a new thread or a post you want picture on, go onto a new line in your post tap the [Img*] box above and outside msg box, right click & paste your pici then tap [Img*] again.

ANDREW K. recommends the following site. thanks andrew.
if anyone has a problem resizing why don't you download IrfanView from http://www.irfanview.com/ It's excellent and you can do a batch resize on a complete directory if you want to. It's also free!!
