ST,
Your previous suggestion of finding a 10 year old kid to help me was a good one, but sadly she told me I was too ignorant and there was nothing she could do other than pity me. Even her pity was brief as she went back to killing the batteries on her tablet.

After some trial and error a was able to reduce the image sizes below 250 using “Paint”, the entire time being sure there must be a simpler way.
I made the mistake of asking a friend who does IT work for a suggestion on a photo hosting website.  He suggested Imgur.com.  I successfully posted a test photo to QJ, but my image was surrounded with advertising, so I immediately deleted the image from Imgur.

db had kindly offered early on to post for me, but I declined as it seemed like cheating.  Citing my need to learn to fish, not just be given one.

Thanks for your reply.  I will try to decipher your BBCODE reference.  I appreciate the help, even if you are over 10 years old.

Regards,

MossBack
