Hi Tim,

There are a number of good free photo resizing programs around.

Personally I use IrfanView: http://www.irfanview.com/

The program is free, download the program and plugins from the above website.
In the settings you can tell the program to resize to 1024x768 and max 95kb.

It also does batch resizing, it's very easy to use.

Danny

I use PhotoRazor, similar to Irfanview: LINK

I set the resulting size to 640 x 480 - usually gets things down below 100K

Bear in mind it was never intended to have a bunch of detail, just test flight, etc.

One more tip - after every photo press ENTER at least once!

That stacks them vertically and are more easily viewed.

That looks nice - have you flown it yet?

I built that about 5 years ago and flew it quite successfully. It died one day when the idiot pilot decided to spin it.
It was very heavily wing loaded and did pull out of the spin, only to snap the other way at which time it was lacking a bit of altitude

oh, I hate when that happens! Had an Anniversary Cub I was having a lot of fun with - decieded to try an avalance (snap roll on the top of a loop) with much the same results.
