I need help sending a picture. I am using GIMP 2 to scale it. The scale says 128 by 96. What am I doing wrong.

It should show if it is inches or pixels or whatever. Right click on the photo and go down to properties and click on that, it should give you a size in mb or kb, so you can see if it meets the required size.
Hope this helps.

When You open it up it is still the size of of the thumb nail.

Hey Gene, Your picture is around 14 kb, It can be up to 128 kb. The larger it is, the better we can see it.
-
That is my problem, I do not know how to do it. Helpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp.

What program did you use to get it down to 14 kb?
Never mind, I see you used Gimp. Do you have Microsoft office picture manager?
-

GB, I Talked with Gene on the phone, and was able to help him with what he has on his computer. May not be applicable to all. He has Microsoft Office, which has Microsoft Picture Manager. In Picture Manager you are able to edit and resize your pictures. But it is different between versions and operating systems.
I think any picture managing program has this ability, you just have to figure out how to do it.
-
That was very helpful and kind of you.
I know the methods are different in each photo manipulation program and for the 'uninitiated' they can be quite confusing.
But often it helps to .. RTFM!

GB, Dan really was patient with me. We worked some differnt programs amd finally we ended up useing MS picture, and Dan walked me throught it. Dan was really kind and gave me his phone number which will not be given out to any one with out his OK.
