Picture Resizing - A Plea

Guys, can we please try and when we post pictures resize them to some sort of normal level..

Ive got a pretty decent sized monitor but some of the pictures getting put up are insanely huge...

A really good free image resizer here..

really simple, load the picture, select a size (600x400 is fine for forums) and press save...

then just upload to something like tinypic...
http://tinypic.com/
you can even upload to tinypic and ask tinypic to resize the picture for you for forums....

Please......

it only takes a few seconds to resize and upload a picture, but its worth the trouble...

I just posted this in the Babes on Bikes thread. It is similar to dims idea. Just use something like imageshack then just make sure you click on resize for message boards. Then it will come out a good size.

Also added some new content to the BoB's thread:D
