However, you also know how technology thwarts me at every turn if it can - even though I try my very best to embrace it in my work and today was no different as when I tried to upload a thumbnail image on to the TpT website it came back with the comment that the file was too large - say what???
How could I change my file size I asked myself and tried various saving picture from a word document, then to paint and back again, powerpoint and nothing worked it remained as 220k and not the 200k or less I needed to upload successfully. I then googled the question which came up with I needed my snipping tool - where the heck is that I asked next!?! It seemed to suggest I would find it if I put a search in on my start button - alright let's do that - O.K. now what's happened??? I seem to have been flung out into cyberspace on a loop back to where I began!! OK after trying again without pressing return my computer sat there ... ... ... but finally came back with a snipping tool in a little move-able box which I shifted rapidly to the top left of my screen. Now I realised I was dealing with something similar to my Smartboard phototool so took a snip of the picture and turned it into a PNG file and tried uploading and still too big - looked at the file and saw that it now weighed in at 310k!!! I was heading to melt down at this point when after reading another helpful post I changed the size of my picture in my word document so that it was really little and took another snip of it - this time it worked- yippee which is why I can offer you this Pumpkin Porch clip art freebie whilst I still have some hair left on my head!!
