i will have a think and have a may thread posted by the end of the day
Blimey, that must be the biggest, longest page in the history of PH!
Well done to WVM
and bad luck on getting to choose the subject for May 
We wait with mice poised...
I wonder if this would be a good time to draw up some rough posting outlines? Even on BB the last page took over a minute to load.
Photos are automatically resized by Ted's clever stuff to 750 pixels wide (well usually) but this is only visual; it doesn't make the files smaller. I know that not everyone has software like PhotoShop, but there'll be *some* kind of image manipulation software, even if it came free with your camera or scanner. Another option with XP is to right-click the image file and select 'resize pictures'. This is a fairly blunt implement but does the job.
My target is 750 pixels wide and a file size of around 100Kb. Learning to juggle image size and file size is a useful skill for the internet and especially if you want to make websites.
