I notice on my computer the picures I posted are larger tham others,
I'll try to remember to shrink them before I upload them next time.
Not only do you guys help with woodworking you also my limited computer skills.
Steelers & Cowboys in the Superbowl? I know i'm dreaming but the 70 Steelers are the best team ever you know. They may do it again.

Hey, bogy. A larger picture may cause someone to have to wait longer if they have a slower net connection. I try to limit my show and tell pictures to around 600 x 450, that is a default setting on my camera so I don't have to go through the resizing process. Many of the free hosting sites only allow a certain size or will resize your uploads automatically anyway.

That's one reason most forums require members to host their pictures elsewhere, people can get carried away with the size and it takes too much bandwidth and storage for the owners to manage.

But, that's not to say that if you have something you really want to highlight you can't. Pictures are a valuable part of sharing what we are doing and what our interests are.

Thanks for participating! dawjr
