Postby TrevorB » Tue 22.03.2011, 21:30

I am trying to post photo of my Elan but having problems cropping to size that will be accepted to upload. Can anyone help :?: :?

Which program do you have on the computer that might resize the pictures Trevor?

... and I'm not much help on either ...

Here's the proceedure for Paint Shop Pro while you're waiting for a better answer ... you may be able to apply the logic to yours.

Re-sizing pictures using Paint Shop Pro > Open the program > click file > open > in the new box find and click on required picture > Open > Image > Resample > make sure the “Maintain Aspect Ratio “box is ticked > in the right hand box under “Custom Size” type in the new size … 500 X in order for it show automatically on the forum page > OK > File > Save as > in new box type in a new file name or just type mod or 2 after whatever comes up.

Thought I might have Paint Shop Pro, but on checking my discs I can't find it. Frustrating this is!!

Hi there
You could also create a Photobucket account (its free) ...Upload your pictures to Photobucket and then re size them on that site (700 x 600 is good).... Once you have resized them Click the "Share" tab and then click the "get link code" tab ... Copy the link code option for "IMG for bulletin boards & forums"(full size) .....Paste the link code onto the LEC along with your message and the pictures should pop up on here.

If you are having trouble you can send me an email with the atached pictures... I will resize and post them for you ...should take about 10 mins or so.

Good luck

If that's original paint, it's looking fantastic...

:agree: What Doug said. Silk Red is one of my favorite colors for the Elan.

I like the red piping on the seats. I saw a dark red on a California car a few years ago.

When I saw the first pics, I thought that tidying the plug cover would smarten up the engine bay a lot.
You obviously thought the same thing :D
Looks nice.
