Alas!
A comment from craftygirl mentioned that
Xanga will “resize” my pics for me. If only…The smallest of my
original picture files I’m working with here now is 11 kb over Xanga’s
3 mb limit. At least some minimal resizing is going to be
necessary. And, of course, Xanga won’t crop my images or brighten
them or darken them. I really see no alternative to learning
PhotoShop. It’s a tired, slow old brain, but I think I can wrap
it around this stuff if I take the time. I will not, however, do it without a little bitching and venting.The next shot is the same time as the previous one, sunrise in late
April. It is a sunward shot across the icy shallows of the
muskeg. I cut the file size only a little, to retain the detail
in the ice surface.

Holy cow, 14MB is a big picture.
You’re right — and I mentioned briefly that I was sure xanga had an upper limit — but I had no idea the limit was so small. What a bummer.
But I’m glad you got some pictures up.
OH! That is soooo beautiful!
You still have Paintshop? I have 8.0. I bring up the photo, select Image and then zip down to resize. Then I make sure I’m on percentage and choose 75 percent or, even 50 percent. That should help you. Save to .jpg and voila.
Hope that helps a little.
But Xanga does resize — to a point. Darn it.
Wow. That’s a gorgeous picture.
