For all those who post pictures in here:
When you post pictures, could you please keep the size of the picture to a minimum? I have gone back and resized the pictures that were here. I made them smaller so they don't stretch the whole page. laugh

Some reasons to keep the images smaller:
1) It stretches out the forum window in some Internet browsers and forces people to scroll right and left to see it all.

2) Larger pictures have larger file sizes. This takes up space on the LDW server and has the potential to make the forums run slower for everyone.

3) Larger pictures take longer to load up. Not everyone has a high speed connection to the internet and these images take time to load. On a dialup connection, these images can take upwards of 15 minutes to load. If things take too long to load, people are going to get frustrated and move on and won't even see your great works of art.

Suggestions:
If you are on a PC running Windows and you use MSPaint, you can resize your image by going to the top meue bar, click on IMAGE and then ATTRIBUTES. When I create an image, I make sure my image is 500 pixels across and 375 down. This will fill the available space in the thread and not stretch it out too much, if any.

Please be sure you have read How to post a picture from the main list of topics here in Fan Art. This has some posting guidelines and some other ideas on how to get your picture posted on here.

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter and helping us make this the best forum possible! laugh
