This is my first try at this. It came out to big. This took me an hour to get this far.My question is do you think the picture is alright for GB if I find a way to reduce it? It's a level three retention holster.

Also is my computer safe from hackers doing it this way?

Can you see it now?

    Well I don't know. If they are looking for X marks the spot, then they will find you.

    If you ain't got pictures, I wasn't there.

    Can you see it now?

    It looks like you are trying to embed the pic. I asked how to do it here also . you need and image host. then you can post a pic. right click on your pic and choose properties and read what it says. now right click on mine . see the difference. If your ispdoesnt offer it. use a search engine and you can find some.

    maybe I misunderstood you. If your placing an auction on GB GB will let you post pics. But you need to send the url so we can
    ex: http://www.gunboker.com auctions......

    Ruger --
    That picture address is on the C drive of your own computer, not on the internet. If you have a web site, you could upload it and then you'd have an http address for the pic, but right so far it's just a file on your own computer. Does your ISP give you any space for your own web site?

    Ruger --

    A proper size for a picture to post on the internet in .jpg can be as small as 35k or less. If your jpeg is much bigger than that, you can benefit from a number of improvements you can learn to make. I'll be happy to help if you want. What application are you using to work on your pictures? Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, or something else? Or you can send me e-mail if you want to. stevetowsley@msn.com

    By the way, if you don't have any decent software to work with your pictures after you scan or photograph them, I can help you get ahold of something good, very quickly, and without you paying me anything. I'm full of ideas.

    I have at least six different software to chose from. I'll try again tommorrow and list the different software. I've been trying to use Microsoft Publisher.I also have Paint Shop Pro 4, Print Shop 6, Web Publishing Wizard, Lotus Smart Suite Free Lance Graphics, Hemera Photo Objects for HP and Adobe Photo Deluxe. I probably have more. I'm having a hard time getting started with MS Publisher. I'll try again tommorrow. I just can't get that http:\\ in there.
