I haven’t altered this image at all or resized it so I don’t know why it comes out so small comparted to the others that people put up.

Two crashes in under half a year. One in Brussels and one in Bogota.

Considering Scott Kalitta’s deadly crash in a drag race a few weeks ago I would say that remark is a bit inapropriate.

BLIMEY!!!!!

Connie had a successful career as a driver for over forty years which I think is what Steve was referring to.:)

I use piczo to upload to and I think it maybe them that alter the size of the pics. I resized the first batch to 1024×768 and they were way small so I thought I had reduced them too much. That pic of XL was full size and it still came up the small size.

Nice pic of an ancient giant there. We seem to be having a small influx of US freighters lately. I’ve seen, World Air in lately, Gemini, and Omni I think as well as a few others but they escape my memory, I just remember seeing unusual US cargo heavies.

I use photobucket to upload my pictures to forums, and they have a facility to alter the size of your pictures.
Also what imaging software are you using? Does it enable you to alter the image size? If so, then save it to 1024 pixels on the horizontal, the vertical should then automatically set itself. I use Adobe Photoshop 5, I bought it on EBAY for a fiver.
