Hey Hubbers,

I've noticed that LOTS of people are having trouble posing pics cos they're too large etc. I assume that lots of you are not familiar with Photoshop etc.
So try this:

Just Upload your pics, make your adjustements.

Nice one chaps. A very handy hint indeed.

Also, more tips for non tech guys.Only use Jpeg or gif formats when uploading. If it looks crap in Gif format use Jpeg, Gifs are ALOT smaller in size (not dimension size, but KB size).

Try resize your image so that the with of the image is at least between 500 - 750 pixels

or so that you don't have to download anything
just use paint

 

on toolbar : > image > stretch/skew and do it at about 25-30% horizontal and vertical and it works great
