Default resizing pictures

Are there directions/video on how to resize photos so they will upload? I have read they are on the FAQ, but darned if I can find them. I was going with the default setting on my camera, I have changed that so hopefully I will not have this problem in the future.

Harold it's easiest to do it on your photo editor if you have one

If you have a windows PC you can do it with paint

Or you can do it with the edit option in photobucket

Hi Harold,

The forum will support 1800x1800 pixel sizes - which is, quite frankly "huge". To "resize" your images to 1800 pixels on the longest side, you can use a number of various tools - and most are free.

Lets try this:

Let me know where it doesn't work, OK?

From the bottom of the FAQ page. Go to www.parkerguns.org and click "Parker FAQs" on the left side near the bottom of the list of links. Then scroll to the bottom of the FAQ page and you will find:

Here are two links to video's that:
  1. Shows how to get a picture that is to large to upload resized so it will.
  2. Shows how to upload a picture into a forum thread.
