Boris, try for 500 to 650 pixel width when you resize. Doing the process in the correct order helps. Crop, resize, then compress, saving results at each stage, so you can go back a step if the result isn't what you want. What software are you using? I hope you didn't pay the neighbor kid too much! When my computer needs serious fixin', I call my retired buddy; he works for pizza and Pepsi. Won't drink my beers, either! Steve

Steve, thanks for the advice,switched to Microsoft inter explore
and was able to get some pics out. Didn't waste money on kid
invested it in beer for me. Will try and resize but dont think
there is much interest in my ambroid glue works of art.. Chuck

Jeez, the pics are so tiny, it's hard to see the airplane. If you can get the size up to 500>650 pixels, visitors will be more interested. So, like, what power are you going to use? Covering? Paint? Beer? Steve

When you get done working on a photo, right click on it, then on properties, and it will tell ya the size of the file in bytes, kb or both. What software are you using? Some work a lot easier than others. I can't get Kodak's software to do much good. But Lite beer? That's just not gonna work! Steve

Chuck,
Nice looking Twister bones. Looking forward to the finished product.
Sorry we missed you Saturday. Maybe we can get a day over Christmas break. I plan to take a day or two off and I hope to do it when the weather is right.


Merry Christmas

Boris!
Much better. We can see it now.
I like the different look you gave it with the dorsal fin.
How are you going to cover/paint it?
Keep the "new and improved" progress photos coming.
