I have never posted a picture here before when I first attempted it said my picture was too big, so how can I shrink the picture to reduce the file size?
No need to install anything now-a-days. Simply go to this site:

Click on the choose images blue button, select "the" picture, or all of them:

For this forum, I typically select this setting, width of 600:

Then click the Start Resizing green button/bar. Once done, it will open to ask you where to save the re-size picture (or a zip file it you were re-sizing more than one):

Then, when creating or replying to a post, select this button next to the two chain links, which will say "Insert Image":

And once you hit enter it should now be part of your post/reply :)

The real beauty of this method is that because it is browser-based, not an app, it works on ALL computers, with all operating systems that I have tried it so far :)

Thanks Will, I will give it a try, here goes:

I cast in my garage. It is a portable temporary setup. All the casting equipment except the folding table and chair and fan go into the RIGID rolling tool chests.

It seems my photos are duplicated. Sorry about that.

Great pictures! The thought that occurred to me was that if you ever get a visit from the Tinsel Fairy, that pretty paint job on your car may suffer greatly. If it is the wife's car--------

It is the wife's car. I guess I'd better move it out of the garage too.
