    Bottom one has a richer colour, but both loaded easily
    It's like wine. I could probably tell a £10  bottle from a £20 bottle, but above that, I couldn't tell the difference and to my uneducated palate,it wouldn't matter a rat's behind.

    Most of my photos are well over 6MB. I use the Windows photo editor on my 'pooter to reduce them. Usually reducing to 'large' takes them to around 1MB, and 'medium' takes them below that. I lost the editor for a while, but downloaded another one - Photoscape - which is also very simple to use.
    I think Nora gave people help with a link for resizing pix, but I don't know where it is.....  :(

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Top of the home page with all the other tutorials, but I don’t suppose anyone ever looks at it.

    What?  No grumping?   Everybody in smiley mode?

    A friend of mine in Belgium has posted a picture of washing instructions for a child's polyester garment made in China.   It says to wash inside out and remove the child first!

    Hilarious - tho I do hate polyester.

    But it’s so much easier to just put the whole lot in the machine, they don’t like being hung up to dry though.

    It's not hot any more so folk are less curmudgeonly except me who is Uber Curmudgeonly because I never thought it was hot in the first place. Now it's freezing.

    Ah but, how do you fit a roof rack to a soft top?   We use ours quite a lot.   

    I do get irritated by excess heat in the car tho and mourn the passing of the sunroof as a feature because they think airco is enough.  It isn't.  It's just noisy when on full blast.

    I killed a Megane - driving a young Possum to a Halloween sleepover party and pre-satnav.  Got lost around Charleroi - as ever - and stopped to consult map.  Needed to do a U so checked mirrors and shoulder and still some old dear popped up in my blind spot and wiped off the entire front.   Still can't decide if that's good or bad French construction.
