click on the paperclip symbol

That is one good looking cart

an alternative, if the object of interest forms only a fraction of your photo, is to use the "crop" option and remove the bits round the object that are of no interest
Very good response. If anyone would like to dig in a little deeper on reducing photo sizes, check out this GOOGLE SEARCH where you can find numerous sites on the subject.

BTW, I like to refer to croping as "taking a byte or two out of your photo's edges!"

Modern incarnations of Microsoft "Paint", which comes preloaded on every PC is very easy to use to reduce the size of photos,...open the "Paint" program, then you open your jpg photo file, click the re-size option, select the pixels option and set it to whatever you want, ....I think TOTV likes 640 x 480 or smaller in pixels, so if your picture is wider than tall you just select the pixels option, set the horizontal pixels to 640 and then the vertical pixels are automatically adjusted in proportion to the rest of your photo. This is very ease to use, and is a free program already on every PC.

Mr. Admin....have you taken away picture posting priviliges (sp?) on some of the threads?
I have the same issue. No paper clip in Political. Why not?

No we have not taken away picture posting privileges on any of the threads. Feel free to email us or PM us your issues and we can research further.
