Welcome to the forums arky...... tis a nice edit  BUT it's overweight. Please reduce the filesize to under 100k and reupload and it will be an even better edit.

cheers

No probs ...... we're a friendly lot here and newbies are allowed one or two small indiscretions.

Some of our more community minded members occasionally help out as Ecko did.

To keep the filesize and quality.

Click File / Save for web / on the right edge of the box that comes up look for the arrow/ click and choose optimise to file size ...... I make mine 99k to be on the safe side as the image tags can add a small amount

Very nice shot!

About the resizing, find all the answers here...

Scroll down, there's an Irfan and a Photoshop tutorial. I use both, but I still like Photoshop the best!

Cheers,

Ozzys rule - if your first 100 shots aren't Spitfires you're a philistine ;D

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!
