Got the floor all repaired and put down carpet tiles.  The slideout operates without all the straining noises and dragging the floor like it did.  Still trying to downsize pictures with print.net....I am not too savvy, I guess.  Thanks.

If you're in paint.net

Select the menu item Image->Resize

Then you can select a percentage or pixel size.

In which program? If it is the GIMP, load your picture. Select "Image" on the menu bar. On the drop-down menu, select "Scale Image" and use the dialog to adjust the size. When you finish, the image will be downsized. Then all you need to do is export it to either a .jpg or .png image for use on the forum.

I like it.  Still could not figure out how to just downsize though.  What am I missing?

I use a tool called Paint.net

Very easy to use, and easy to learn.

It isn't too difficult. Don't let all the options intimidate you. The one you need for scaling is Image/Scale Image. Then you can try some of the auto options under Colors/Auto. If you don't like what you see, you can always revert with CTRL-Z. If you want to circle something, you have the paintbrush/pencil tool. Anyway, I hope that will help get you started.

As for uploading a picture, go to the advanced editor (the overlapping box icon with the arrow inside) which will then give you an icon (picture) that you can select to upload your picture for use in the forum. I find 800x600 is a good size for uploading. It is a good compromise of viewability and file size.

Thanks....probably over my pay grade but as long as I can downsize and edit a bit, I will try it.
