Hi Peeps,
I recently paid to become premium member so I can have garage and post pics my motor up e.t.c. but ten found that all pics have to be below 1mb...

Nearly all my pics are about 1.4-1.8mb - Anybody know anyway I can do anything to lower the size of the pic so can upload them ????

Cheers

Ryan

ok heres what to do, open the picture in paint, then just save it to where they are kept, remembering to overwrite, make sure you save as .JPG and they should be much smaller now
