photobucket

Who uses photobucket?

I used up my limit of bandwith on flickr.com for the month so I uploaded the rest of my house pictures to photobucket, but they seem to have just one size which is really large and I really don't want to post giant photos... they just don't look nice... they are somewhat blurry and such.

Does anyone know how I can resize my photos in photobucket or do I have to do that before I upload and if so.... how?

Right click on your image file on your hard drive.
"open with" Photo shop or MS Paint.
with Photo Shop click "image" and then "image size"
with MS Paint click "image" then "stretch and skew" or Ctrl+w.

I use MS Paint and when I click into those two things mentioned I change it to 50/50. I haven't really played with my photobucket stuff I have used it for my flickr account but that should help. I also found if I did this with my flickr pictures before downloading it took up less space so I can fit more pics in.
I hope this helps my hubby helped me write it all out. :O)

I haven't had a lot of trouble with resizing, but I wanted to say that you don't have to keep your pics on one of those sites. What I have done, is upload to the site, then preview the image. I then right click and copy the image. Then I just paste it into blogger. That way I don't have to keep the image there forever. I tried to copy straight from my computer, but for some reason it wouldn't work. So, now I am doing this.

My name is Christina. I am 38 years old and have been happily married to my best friend, Russ for over 18 years! My username is quietcajun, but I am neither quiet, nor cajun! The nickname is based on my children's initials! The first four children are: Kaitlyn (16), Jordan (14 next month), Ian (12.5), and Noah (10 next month)... put their first intials together and you get KJIN (cajun). Sarah Hope is one of our babies in Heaven and Hannah (8 in September) is my youngest (so far). Put S and H together and you get SH as in SHHHH... QUIET. Get it? Thus, quietcajun! We are in our 12th year of homeschooling. We have tried public school, but we soon realized how important it is that they be HOME at all costs. Now we are back to having them all home again! It's not always easy, but it is for the BEST! Two of our children have Asperger's Syndrome. That is an adventure in itself. We are still learning! This blog is a place for me to sort out the daily joys and challenges of life as a mother and wife as I strive to love and know God more and bring GLORY to HIM in EVERY part of my LIFE!!!!
