OK, Sal

Just to keep you off my back on this forum as well as the other one

The photos look good Wolf - tell me did you take them on low resolution setting on your camera or did you shrink the file size later? I've got to put a couple of pics on mine as well. Ta

Shrunk the hell outta them with Irfanview (freebie image viewer with limited editing capabilities) - and they still look bloody clear.

Weather permitting, I hope to get even better pics this weekend - out on the road rather than outside a park in Hamilton.

I was wondering whether I should buy a copy of some photo programme 'cos its a bit limiting what you can do with what you get on XP. Did you download that Irfanview thing? Thanks

OK Merv seeing as no-one else is having a go at guessing where this photo was taken - on the Molesworth Station Road????

Its taken a while for someone to guess but sorry not Molesworth but Nevis Road. Closer to home for you and it was a good ride.

I use Ulead PhotoImpact because I always have and it came with my scanner. XP has Paint as usual and if you have Microsoft Office you have Microsoft Office Picture Manager which is quite useful.

Here it is... http://www.irfanview.com/

At a glance it looks ok to me. I might just give it a proper look myself.
Download file is 884kb in size so it's not too big for dialup connections either.
