    A little help

    I have been trying to resize images for this forum that Ireally would like to post. Is there an easier way to meet the compliance standards of 241.1kb and 640x640?

    I generally download off my CF then resize in Elements 2.0. But to get them posted here, I have to go back in and resize yet again....seems awfully time consuming. I should mention that my first resizing effort is to post them on flickr.

    Thanks for any feedback,

    I have reduced the file size of the following pix. I was in Albany NY at the Giants training camp, could have gotten the VIP thing as I am a former Albany athlete (70's, but good in my own way!)
    didn't go VIP, which meant shootin outside the snow fence and between the VIP's heads. Nonetheless, my humble offering.

    I may be writing to myself tonight, but until I figure out how to truly post shots like you all do, I'm pretty much sunk. I have no idea why they came out in this lineup/spread. Plus, they're pretty small for viewing. Back to the drawing board.

    Use Save for Web in Elements 2.0. Due the size 640 in the longest side then go up top and select Naximum. Then to the right is a number like 100% and a slider where you can adjust the number or slider to get at or under the 241 KB restriction and that should do it.

    Also have you thought about hosting your pics on photobucket or the like? You just upload to their site and then post the url here. No need to resize.
    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.
