Hello all,
I've had my 68 Safari now for 14 months and gone from completely gutted to completely restored. The only thing left is polishing. I asked a lot of questions early on and appreciate all of the help and suggestions that I recieved. I promised that I would post pictures but I have no idea how to. I've got probably a hundred pics of the process, before and after shots in "my pictures" file. If someone helps me through it, I'd be glad to share them with everyone.
Thanks, Scott
68 Safari

It appears I have been technically challenged. When I take photos on my digital camera, the file sizes are always WAY to big to post here. The only way I have figured how to get to the right file size is to crop the picture - almost down to nothing.

Is there a setting or something on either my camera or computer that magically takes a huge photo size and shrinks it - without eliminating 80% of the picture?

Yes, there is...If you're using Windows XP, click here:

find the "image resizer", download and install it.

when its done, you'll be able to "right-click" on any jpg image, and "resize picture" will be an option in the context menu. When you click that, a menu will open, giving you a bunch of options. Choose 640x480 or 1024x768 for the image size, and hit the go button, and it'll make a copy that is a fraction of the size of the original. then you can use the small versions for uploading and e-mailing.
