Hello.  I am new to the forum.  I have 2 cats - 2 boys.  They are called Ollie and Harvey.  I absolutely adore the 2 of them - even when they're being little monsters.   :Luv2:

My avatar picture shows them when they were little kittens.  Did try to post ones of them as they look now but I'm having problems as my pictures are all too big so will need to work on that.

Hiya Angeladeedah and  :welcome: to Purr's  :)

most peeps use photobucket.com for putting photo's up, think you can resize them on there also

Look forward to seeing some pics  ;)

If you need help resizing your pics the following may help:


http://www.download.com/JPEGCompress/3000-2204_4-10404412.html?tag=lst-0-1

or

Image Resizer for windows XP (I use this one)

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
It's the 10th or 11th on the right hand side .. Image resize.
Once installed right click on the photo you want to resize.
Select resize pictures
Select advanced
Select custom
Put in 400 by 300 (sometimes you have to put in smaller figures if it is still too big).
Click ok and it makes a custom photo ready for uploading

You can resize more than one picture at a time by highlighting them all and following the resizing steps above.

Other members use photobucket.  www.photobucket.com You just uplooad the photos then copy the [img] code under the pics and paste into the thread.
