Hi, Problem uploading my pix since i got a new cam

so every since i got my new camera (10.1 megapixels instead of my old 5.1) i have not been able to upload. Its a bummer because it happened mid-grow log so it looks like i abandoned my grow.

Anyway here's what happening, maybe someone can help. I would appreciate it very much.

With my new camera i am saving my pics to my harddrive. then when i go to the upload page i select the photo to upload and hit the 'upload pictures' box. When i do that it immediatly takes me to a white page that says 'The page cannot be displayed' i can go back and try it again and again. Occassionally (rarely) one takes and i can get it into my gallary.

So i know that my pictures are 1) to large. in upwards of 3 mbs and they should be 146k and 2) the dimensions are too big. i see that they should be around 1000 x 1000, mine are anywhere around 3500 x 2500.

I guess my question is, with my old cam it would automatically resize the pics for me (and i could upload more then one at a time), do i have to manually resize? If so what program do you suggest? I have searched the internet and tried a few programs but they dont really help. (i also researched IC before starting a thread.)

OR maybe i should set my cam to take the pics in 5 mp mode instead of 10... i don't know

thanks for your help. i am really looking forward to getting back to posting on my grow log.

later

I never had trouble to upload pics...but maybe you can try to upload them using another browser (just to see if works) or try to upload pics taken from your old camera and see if it still works.

Don't know any software to resize images,sorry.

:wave:

okay, i guess i can try another browser. I'll get back with the results this afternoon.

If anyone else has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated!

(there has to be more people on here posting pics with a 10mp or more camera)
