FP 2K Adding JPEG scanned pictures (size)

[Tut]

Hello, I am scanning pictures to put in my website. Why do they come in so
large? I have to grab from the corners, and resize the pics. When scanning
should I save as other than JPEG to get normal size of the picture. The pics
are color 4X6 inches.
Thanks in advance, Bob

You need to scan the photos into a image application, most scanners come with a image editing
application, once you have the image, you need to resize the image to the size you want to use, then
save a JPEG image to your desktop, then import it into your current open FP web, then insert on your
page.

Thanks, that did the trick. Might help if I learned how to use my scanner.

Optimize your photos to no more than 50 kb each or they will not load
quickly enough.
Study your image editing program. Do not use FP to alter your photos in any
way.
