Picture Me Competition

Hi Pauline
I tried to send you my kidpic but there was a message saying your private message attachments had reached their limit, so it wouldn't get through.

Is there a solution to this?

If it's a very big file (over 250kb) it won't send via PM. Try and get it down to less than 100kb and try again. There's absolutely nothing in my attachments box.

If you still have trouble let me know.

Liz - maybe it's a .bmp file? Those tend to be much larger than .jpg files. Do you have a way to convert it from .bmp to .jpg? Such as PaintShopPro, or (I think) even Microsoft Paint will do it?

Just a thought....

Yes Paint will do it, and if you have Quicktime Picture Viewer you can make the picture half size, that will reduce the kb too.

Thanks Roger and Pauline for your help. I've managed to reduce it's size quite a bit. It seems to have got through now.
