Camera problem.

Hello all,
I have a Kodak DX 7630. Its nice but maybe too nice. 6 pixels down to 1.7 .The latter is 1496 by 1122 pixels. Pictures on lowest level are still to big to post. Am I missing a solution here somewhere, or need to get a different camera. Thanks, Rick

Hi Rick, you can either make a copy on your PC/Mac and then resize them.
Or you can upload them to a online storage (wich offer different sizes as links(URL'S)) I like www.flickr.com

ps I have a 8mp orig size = (3456 x 2304) this photo size = (500 x 333)



Hope this helps....
Scott

I use zoto.com

THey offer about 12 different automatic resizes for my 6.3 MP images and they also give me 2 GB of free storage and have somewhat recently added album and webpage/bloging as a free service as well. Most convient is their uploader as now all I have to do is right click an image to upload it. Can also make image public or private viewing. Can't wait to see you photos!

Check your menu to see if you have it on "Fine" compression or "Standard."
Have you set it to Standard compression?

Yes. When I found that I thought all would be great. I'm just a slow learner. Someday it will all be clear. I 'll have a hands tutor someday come over and give me lessons on Digital Photography.
