Margo OFFLINE Posts: 6522 Thank you received: 129	Jo Ann, if you are using a PC you can reduce the size in MS Paint. (Sorry I can't help you with a MAC) Let me know if you need help with that. Or you can go to Resize It: http://www.resize.it/ and follow the 3 easy steps that are listed if your photo is a standard size. If your photo has been cropped (I think yours has) just reduce it by one of the percentages.

AnnieJo OFFLINE Posts: 14	Ok...here I am dealing, yet again with my love/hate relationship with computers!!! Someone else took this photo for me (with a fancy-dancy huge camera), he said he reduced it but maybe not enough since only half of it will download! The size is 311kb...how do I reduce it so it will open properly?

Margo OFFLINE Posts: 6522 Thank you received: 129	AnnieJo, Rosemary is right!! You haven't missed the deadline for the book, only the prototype! Is anyone else only seeing 1/2 of AnnieJo's photo, or is it my computer? What I can see looks great!!

Thank you Maryjo, some bumps are just bigger than others, aren't they.............
Unfortunately the insurance companies are now making it worse by not coming to the party and refusing some of their claims.
One of my recipients got their insurance money, were ready to finish rebuilding their kitchen, went to buy their new stove, fridge, etc. paid for the goods and waited for them to be delivered and the company went into receivership, so they even lost their insurance money and no goods. How's that. Grrrrr, makes me so cross.
Off to sewing now to finish off a couple of ufo's.
Cheers for now,
Louise

I will send Carol the story. Thanks, Louise I hope that Carol can make it work! I would love to see your quilts and read the entire story!
