How to get pics on this page...

dmboone25 · 10-09-2006, 12:37 PM

I picked up my 328i E92 over the weekend, and tried to post some pics that I took of it, but when I was attaching them, I kept getting a message that they were too big. Each pic is about 1.2-1.6 MB in size--is there anything I can do so they can be converted to a smaller size/format?

Thanks for any suggestions in advance....

If you have access to Microsoft Office 2003 use the Picture Manager under the Microsoft Office Tools folder to condense the size.

yeah, i usually use photoshop to reduce the size of pics. File>Save for Web. it reduces the size and quality but you can manage to keep good quality even when you reduce the filesize...

If you run windows, just get this powertoy: Image Resizer in the above link.

After you install it, select the image or images, right click, resize image, and then either use large or do a custom res larger than large (medium and small are wayyy too small).
