shoes Report post Posted August 21, 2009 want to intro myself to my fellow leatherworkers. ive been lurking for a little while. thought i'd say hi! been doing leatherwork for about 15 years now, have had my own shop for almost a year now. do about anything there. shoe repair, bootmaking(when someone will pay the labor costs!) LOTS of bike stuff, and quite a bit of braiding and knots. wanted to tell you guys that i think this board is the best thing for our trades and crafts. the sharing of knowledge here is something i've NEVER seen! i'm gonna try to upload a couple pics, this boards controls got me confused! well, they keep telling me the file is too big (never heard THAT before!) too old for this stress!!

celticleather Report post Posted August 21, 2009 Hi, and welcome to the Forum - probably the world's greatest encyclopedia of leatherworking! To reduce the size of your pictures, try using http://www.picresize.com/. You can resize the pictures as necessary, and they should then post ok.

King's X Report post Posted August 21, 2009 welcome to the site. I just keep my pixels down under 1000 and it usually loads. I use a simple program like Microsoft Picture Manager and click on the edit/resize. 900 pixels for the first number should be okay for you to load, one at time. Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GElsenbeck Report post Posted September 22, 2009 Shoes, welcome aboard. I was wondering when I'd find one working with footwear, and a biker to boot! Ooops for the pun. Where about upstate shoes? We might be neighbors. Gary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
