Heh. Well, when I said we were on our last few bucks, I meant it. Most of
that was supposed to go toward our mortgage payment. Fortunately, the bank
is now investigating the matter and has released our funds back to us in the
meantime.

I'm not confident in the wisdom of
that statement.  It's difficult enough to keep on top of the bills as it is,
I'd rather not have to contend with your ill fortune as well.

Yeah. Such is the danger of having convenient li'l debit cards to user
hither and yon. I don't know if our number was pirated from the 'net or if
it was taken off a receipt. Most receipts print your entire number and
expiration on them (don't know why they do this... how stupid)

Hey, since I've been leaching off you this long, I thought I might try
to glean yet another of your good graces (give an inch and take a mile and
all that :^))  Before I attempt a second test on Brickshelf, could you tell
me how to make my pics smaller?  My previous ones were a tad...BIG.

I use Photoshop to change the resolution of my images. Somehow I suspect
that you don't own Photoshop, so you'll need to use whatever image program
you may have to make your images smaller.

Anyone else have suggestions here?

BTW, thanks for the hint about the link, it never crossd my mind that
when advertising Brickshelf pics I should give people the path to them.

No problem. I think I forgot to post my URL almost every time I posted a new
MOC, at least  until I started putting my URL into my sig file. :^)

(...) I use Paintshop Pro. Depending on the image, I either reduce it's size by a factor of 2 in each dimension, or I crop the picture to a reasonable size. FUT: lugnet.publish.photography Frank (24 years ago, 13-Jan-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.publish.photography)
