I have created a card in Microsoft Picture It and am trying to upload to the gallery.

So far - .png file is huge and will probably blow up the gallery! Tried to save as .jpg, but the whole thing goes blurry and the right side of the card has been cut off!! (see my attempt in the gallery!).

Anyone had any luck with this?!! It prints out well, although takes about 5 minutes to spool!

TIA!

I had a version on Picture It 2002. I also have Digital Image Pro v. 10. You are probably somewhere in between. LOL. In Photo 2002 there is an option to Save Special. Then you can save for the web, and it will give you a pixel wide option. Select 600 pixels wide, this is ususally a good viewing option for uploading to the gallery and it won't fuzz it up too much. In DIP I can change image size, and choose 600 to 800pixels wide, and then with the jpg can choose the compression to make it 125K or less. Always save your web versions separate from your origionals so that you don't accientally save over your full size version. Done that!
