thanks wheels. it says:
i don't think i can make it any smaller, at least not small enough to make a difference. that's why i wondered about the option for no file size limits on pics hosted elsewhere, that's how those other forums work, but they're not vbulletin, so i don't know if that's an option..
anyway tis nice i can have starry night full-size now instead of having to crop out a little piece of it
