[QUOTE="Marine1937, post: 36930, member: 8104"] Hello all, I'm glad to be part of your (our) community. I've been checking out the forums and there's some great information and photos, I think I'm going to have fun, while learning a lot at the same time. I'm fairly new to a lot of this, new to photography, new to forums, posting messages, etc. I was really interested in the recent alphabet challenge. I figured this would be a great introduction to this site and all the challenges that went along with trying to produce a worthy entry. This challenge was hard, time consuming, and fun, and I look forward to participation in many more. I wish I could have uploaded, I think I had some interesting photos, for my first attempt at something like this, and would have like for all of you to see and critique. I do have a couple of questions. First, I did finish the challenge late last night and when I tried to submit my entry I received a message that my file size was too large, 2.2 Mb. How do I get file size down? I looked at many of my photos and just about all of them exceed the forum limit. I currently shoot RAW and convert to JPG. Second, any ideas on what software is used to do the assembly of the alphabet entries. I used Picasa 3, which is okay, but has limitations. I had a really hard time getting the photos aligned without severe cropping issues, resizing, etc. Any suggestions? Thanks and I look forward to gaining friendships, seeing some great photography, and learning from those that know a whole lot more than I. [/QUOTE]
