A few months ago a bought a Mac and a Canon XTI and I love both, but iphoto that comes with the Mac will not allow me to resize the pics, at least I can't figure it out!! when I try to upload pics here, its said my pic is to large. Help!!!!! Ty Gary

Welcome to the forums!!!!

Not sure about the answer since I do not use Iphotos, but you will get an answer faster if you post your question in the post processing forum, and use a title such as "Trouble resizing in iphotos". Those who know will flock to your thread.

Good luck!

Welcome! In iphoto go to the edit button then crop--- then click the size or shape you would like. Then upload the photo to something like photobucket.com to share with the forum etc.

photobucket would be the easiest option for you. You may upload directly to POTN, but there's a 150kb limit (which can be a fiddle to achieve sometimes).

My advice would be to start with photobucket, and use the [IMG] tags to link your shots. (the link I upplied will give you more information about how to do this).
