Beautiful rifles. Just need to change the images to a reasonable size. When they are this big, it makes it almost impossible to view them.

Hi Vergeltung
Here's an incredibly easy, quick, and cheap way to re-size your photos (they are so big I didn't even bother looking, to be honest, until I saved one and then resized it) You'll be using software that is often completely overlooked on any Windows based PC- "Paint". And it's already installed on your PC Go to the photo you want. Right click on the icon Select "open with....Paint" Once the photo is opened in paint: You'll see a list of headers across the top of the window. One will be "Image". Click it Select "Resize/Skew". On older WIN installs it may be "Stretch/Skew" You will see an option window open Change the X and Y feilds of your image. This will change the percentage of the photo size for the X and Y directions. You'll want to change them both equally for 99.9999% of anything you do. Save the resized photo with a new name I reduced one of your photos to 45%, with this result: Beautiful Mausers Hope this helps, Chris |
