when uploading photos how do you load them at a apropriate size and not huge like the ones i uploaded

I change mine on Photoshop and then upload, the uploader cant do it for you

copy them into word and edit pic size by dragging corners save the file as a html, look in the file folder, where saved, and the pic file saved of the reduced file size is variable, hope this is of help also when putting on this web site do not put spaces in the title you have saved files as it will not work

Best (free) way is to download the evaluation version of Paint Shop Pro (www.jasc.com). That will crop and resize images for you and allow you to tweak brightness, colour etc.

or if you want truly free try using gimp (GNU Image Manipulation Program) from http://www.gimp.org/

great free photo / image tool

My favourite, and you can do a 'Batch Conversion' and change a load at one - and it's always free is 'Irfanview'. I use it regularly to change pics for my web site.
