I think I started out reducing the size of the pic by 50%, then worked back up. I've since settled on 60% as a good size. Of course, this is good for my camera. I'm not sure if yours is set up like mine.

The biggest problem I had was trying to get my pics with the correct side up; I thought it could be done on the YORF server and was wrong. Had to figure out how to do it in my computer first and then upload to the YORF server (have to admit here and now that I have very little computer knowledge; otherwise what I do know is what I learned "OTJ"). Took me hours to get this right. By then, my neck and shoulders were aching like crazy!

I opened the pic using Microsoft Office Picture Manager and did all of the changes in there, saved it, then posted it.

That's basically what I did. The first time I tried posting my pics (which were those of the clone Centuri V-2 on this forum), I left it like I did and thought the website owner (Scott Hansen, I think) would edit and rotate the pic for me. Nope. He e-mailed me back and said I have to do it from my end. Exaspertated, I deleted that post and went to work "playing" with the computer to see what I could do, and did just like you said. When I got the post up the next time (correctly), Scott e-mailed me again noting my correction and said he wouldn't have been able to figure out the correct procedure himself! And, I thought I was bad (on computers).

The Windows Picture and Fax Viewer that is included in WinXP easily rotates pics 90 degrees at a time with one button click. For all other editing, I use Jasc Paint Shop Pro.

Thanks Guys!
Thanks guys for all the great info. I have recently pruchased an Kodak Easyshare Z730 and I will need all the help I can get trying to fiqure it out.
If I take a movie with it, what is the best way to take a still frame and save it as a JPEG. I am wanting to catch some rockets at liftoff and at ejection?? Thanks Again, JP James Pierson NAR# 77907 |

James, Can't really answer the question but here are some tips with using the camera in video mode.....make sure you buy some additional memory for the camera. Video uses it pretty quickly. The camera will adjust the picture for you on stills (you know, turn the camera on it's side and the picture will turn out right side up), well, in video mode, the movie will be sideways. Rocket really looks funny taking off at a 90 degree angle . Don NAR 53455 |

My camera has a "burst" mode. It can take pictures in bursts of either three or 40. I don't use the 40 much, but I'm wearing the three mode out. Check the instruction book to see if you have something similar.
