More detailed Instructions for November Show and Tell


Use what ever software you are comfortable with to resize your pictures to 1600 pixels on the longest side.


A good free resize tool can be downloaded from

http://www.faststone.org/FSResizerDownload.htm


YouTube video on how to use FastStone resizer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86AZqhmHTMQ


Maximum number of pictures to submit is 12 the minimum number is 10 email pictures to me at rodshean@bellsouth.net as attachments


Many Internet Service Providers like BellSouth and Comcast limit the size of attachment to 10 Megs total for attachments. Therefore if your pictures are 2.5 Megs to 3 Megs each you will need to send to send me between three and four emails with 3 pictures attached to each.


If you want to send them all at once try using either

http://drop.io/


Zip picture files and upload to drop/io

You will need to email me the ?www.drop.io/your name? address which will be located in the web address line at the top of your browser. Plus a password to access if you choose to use one. I recommend no password.


http://www.mailbigfile.com/


You will have to zip the pictures into a single file to send it. If you know how to zip files this may be a better choice as you fill in my email and upload the zipped files and thats it.


http://www.7-zip.org/download.html


7-zip is a good free zip tool if you don?t already have one.

Another choice is to mail me a CD of the pictures you want to show. Please have them in the mail by the 12th of November the meeting is on Tuesday November 18th. If I receive them by Monday the 17th I will be able to include them.
