3. According to Photobucket, this one is small.

4. Sorry, I laughed
I tried to find your original entry and it was gone and the postage stamp replaced it. :rofl:

I wouldn't laugh except I know you will get this right!! I love the pic, by the way.

Try resizing it on edit by typing in the numbers (800). I have to say though it seems like you have to start from the right and go backwards so as not to lose it all together.

Start with the big picture size, and remember, undo is your friend until you get it right.

I use IrfanView to resize pictures, so I don't really have the directions to Photobucket. But, there is a place on edit to type in 800. Again, you have to do it carefully because getting it to zero seems to make it zero.

5. Also keep in mind
Even the "large" photobucket edit is too small for the contest, as it is 640 on one side. That would get you within the limits but put you at a disadvantage. So you will probably have to upload the picture to photobucket again.

6. Oh No!!
I am so sorry. I hate to have caused all this fuss. :(

I have photobucket and this is how I resize. I click the picture and bring it up in a single view. Then when you hover over the picture, a green bar comes up at the top of the picture. Then you can click resize and then click more options. Then you can type in 800 on the long side, but let it automatically keep the proportions for the other side.

Hope that helps.

7. No worries, sweetie!
It's OK. I knew that it was most likely too big. I will try what you suggest.....and then we'll see what happens...

:hug:
