Went by High Rock today to look at the repairs. Took a lot of pictures but they are too big to upload. Any suggestions how I can make them available for others to see?

You can use Picasa (free download from Google, at http://picasa.google.com/) to export photos in a smaller, web-friendly size to a separate folder (so you don't lose the originals).

When you first start Picasa, it indexes all the photos it can find on your computer, which may take it a few minutes. A list of folders containing pictures shows up on the left sidebar; clicking on a folder displays the contained pictures as a grid of thumbnails.

Click on a picture to select it, then go to the File menu and choose "Export Picture to a Folder..." This will display a dialog that shows the Export location (a folder, which defaults to the folder containing the picture--you can change this using the Browse... button to the right), and below that "Image size", with a slider control that changes the size of the exported picture. Choosing a size of around 800-1000 pixels works pretty well. I just exported a picture that I took with my iPhone; the original was 2800 KB in size (3264x2448 pixels), and the exported version (800x600) was 214 KB.

cheers,

-John

John M. ,

thank you for the pictures and report. Looks like there may still need some work done there. I am trying to track down the contact and contractor so we can figure it out.

thanks.,

Jon
