    Welcome, Lefty! I am a Southpaw myself. Good to have you around. At least two of us are in our right minds, anyway! []

    Thank You all for the warm welcome. That is what is great about this site.


    I have bought nearly all of my Canon gear after reading Brian's reviews and also the community's, hands on reviews.


    I will try to post a photo soon. I just have to figure out what is the best size and which button to click on to get it to post.


    I know I have read the information on here before, could someone point me to the thread that covers uploading photo size and res?


    Thanks Again,


    LeftyB

    Push on the "insert media" button which looks like a film []


    Maximum image width that is used here mostly is 800 pixels. You can go bigger, but your image will not be shown entirely.


    You can also insert a bigger photo and manualy adjust the maximum size by typing in 800 pixels in the insert media tab.


    Try it out, it ain't that hard [H]

    Almost forgot to mention. You only get 5MB of storage size on this forum, so unless you're using your own sort of storing other than here...it's advisable to keep your images small. JPEG quality 80 instead of 100 etc..


    If you're using sites like flickr, you can embed your photos in here.


    Good luck!
