Haven't seen him on any board for years, unless he (A) changed his user name or (B) blocked me. :-)

I wanna say his name was Sean or maybe he spelled it Shawn? I'm not positive but that name for some reason sticks out. He was good peoples, I enjoyed his banter.

I believe SilverFox was banned for some shenanigans or other. Don't remember the details but he was very active once upon a time.

Really!? That's disappointing. I had nothing but amazing interactions with him.

Here are some ways to resize depending on what you are posting from before uploading to Imgur.

If Android (should be usable on Android tablets and potentially Chromebooks) -

If Mac -

If PC -
Here is an article that walks you through using Paint and some third party apps. I’ve used IrfanView in the past and it worked well.

Once you’ve settled on a way, you’ll need to pick a width dimension. I use 600p as that seems to preserve a photo enough and not break the forum tables. Less than that will work too.

Good luck! If you run into a problem I can try to work it out with you - probably through messaging.

Great find Ryan! :-)

Great info, Geoff!

One note about irfanview. Control-r brings up the resize window. Select “lock aspect ratio” and then use a percentage to scale. Must easier IMO.
