My First Time Posting Foe-Toes - Santa Fe Du - 12-17-2008
Hello all, this is the first time I have ever tried to post "Foe-Toes, to borrow a phrase from Doc. Wayne", so if it doesn't work, I'll keep trying till I figure it out,
and I know there is a lot of work to be done on my HO layout, ie. blasting and much more, but this is where I am at at the present, and only aprox. 15% is this far along, so I will keep updating as I get more near completion. Well here goes nuttin 
Well sorry guys, I spent an hour trying, but by the time I reduced them to the required 79KB Max size, they were too small to make out any detail at all, I must be doing something wrong, or misunderstood something, but I reduced them to around 75KB, and when I previewed, they were around 2" X 2", and very blurry.Santa Fe Do, "keep On Tootin"

Post the pictures at 640x480 and forget the file size. they should fit. They look better posted then you think, and I guarantee they look better to us posted then they look to us not posted. If you are using winxp microsoft has a free addin that is a photo resizer that once installed all you have to do is right click a selected picture or selected batch of pictures and it will resize them and make smaller copies in the same folder. It works pretty fast too.
By the way Welcome aboard.
