Maybe we could have a sticky in this area on the topic of "resizing pics".
I was going to make this same post. The site also handles these XL pic poorly.
I use MS Office Picture Manager. it makes resizing and cropping photo's easy, and Its a standard utility. Many people probably already have but don't know about
It would be nice to be able to arrange attached photos in the thread to tell a better story. I was using P bucket for a while but there is nothing worse than looking up an old post just to find the pictures gone. I figure if we can upload pic to our site we should be able to Arrange them in a post and they will never disappear unless we get nuked again.
