Hi James,
Not surprised considering the size of each photo! you've obviously exceeded the KB limit, try reducing them to about 100Kb each, that would be more than adequate.

Looks like you're doing a good job ;D

Oh for a garage to work in :'(

We've hit the upper limit on the attachment directory again!! I'll need to put it up to terabyte capacity.  ::)

Keeping photos to about 100KB would be great for this sort of attachment. Photos or scans of text will need to be larger, of course. Ta.  :)

I use Adobe photoshop elements 2, once into the program go to "file"-"open"- find the photo you want to reduce, click on "image", then "duplicate image" (which gives you a copy to work on without affecting the original) rename this as reduced copy.
While still in image scroll down to "resize", this will then show
-"image size", click on this. In the box that appears change the width size to 800, the other boxes will change to match, then click on -"OK"-go to "file" -"save as" -"save"-the box that opens, Jpeg options, shows at the bottom the new size of the photo in KB's, the box next to this shows @ what download speed, if it says 56.6kbs and you're on Broadband click on the down arrow and change this to 2 Mbps. click on "OK" if you are happy with the new size and it's then ready to post on the forum at the reduced size.

Sounds complicated but it's not at all.

just so you understand the photo's, the outside of wings were primered 1st, then underneath were spray sealed with wurth sealant then 2k prima and body colour, the strange wooden frame is a buck made for making new wings on or repairing damaged wings (my dad made that too!!!!) the wings have been shelved for the time being so i can do minor cosmetics to my evo so i can sell it to fund interior and chrome :'(

My idea of "minor cosmetics" is clearly a bit more superficial than yours ;D
