New Image Resizing

Scrolling works in firefox with fastone, Ryan
but excruciatingly slow,
in IE it is lightening.

The GOOD thing is that I tried the new built-in image resizer, and it is simpler and quicker than using my graphics program to make a second file.

Yep, I use it too, and I have some top notch photo-editing software.

I use photobucket to post pics as most times it is quicker and has larger storage for my needs. Lately my posts seem to have extra large pictures. Does anyone know a setting I could adjust to reduce some of the size?

AHA! SO I am not the only one with photos displaying huge! I'm not crazy after all... well, I AM, but that doesn't apply here! ;-)

Clear your cache or do a forced refresh (ctrl-f5) to get new files, then I want to hear a good story with a happy ending from our IE users.

I use IE9. While the images were very large when the new process was implemented, causing me to scroll right and left to read accompanying text, they are resizing now so I am happy with whatever it was that you did! And as I said earlier, I definitely don't miss those nuisance ads that seemed intent on covering up the image whenever it was expanded. Thanks!

That makes us two!

1775Mac. With Photobucket I found there are three easy sizes available. If 'just' the code beneath the image is clicked the size is 140 x 58 pixels, if the IMAGE is clicked the size is 620 x 260 pixels, if image is clicked AGAIN the size is 799 x 336 pixels. Hope this may help.

The resizing should be working on all the main browsers now. IE, FF, and Chrome.

Thanks bobby!
It has made posting images for newbies heaps easier.

To me the big test will be if I can post an image designed
for ebay that will also post on SCF with no change.

To post an image from my pitures and not from my pictures to photo bucket to post.

You people are miles ahead of me but sometimes it helps to hear from a newbie.

KGV,

If there is a socket on the back of your laptop you may still be able to plug your old monitor into it and have two screens working at once. That is, if your monitor was the reason you had better quality resolution or perhaps it was the graphics capability of the video card?

I understand the lack. I am using an old monitor with a scratched screen now and keep thinking I have found stamps with errors and re-entries, lol. My old monitor was a better quality resolution also, better than what one usually gets with the LCD screens now, so I miss it.

Thanks Puzzler!
This laptop came with 1 GB graphics, 4 GB memory.
Sounded like it would be good for images coming and going.
It looks like it has a port on the side that might take the old screen.
The old screen is thicker than it is wide. lol
I very much want to see poor images clearly again as it seems to help so many.
Example: My avatar is a nice shade of red but the image has little detail.
