Kestrel was launched at 1:40 pm Friday.  Here are some shots of the event.

I'm trying to post these pictures, but they are not making it to the site.  I will keep trying.

[walberts]

OK .. I am hopeful that this will make it to the site.  I am struggling with technology again.

[walberts]

Now I see what was happening.  Each picture exceeds the file size for the forum.  Any suggestions as to how to get around this problem?

[Bill]

As per the E-mail sent you, the photo size needs to be reduced.  The software that came with your digital camera should be able to do this.  Posted graphics should be no larger than 600 pixels on the longest side of the graphic.  That's about 2 inches if you're using linear measurements.

[walberts]

Unfortunately, I  downloaded all the pictures onto the computer and then deleted them from the camera.  I hope I can somehow post what I have.  Do you know of any other options?

My email has changed.  It's now billalberts at comcast dot net

The photos should still be on your PC.  Find them and use the software from the camera, Microsoft's photo software or go to Google and download a free program call Picasa that will edit and organize you photos much in the same fashion as Adobe Photo Shop Elements.

Then remove those over large photos you posted earlier, reduce their size and repost them.

Here you go. I offered to resize it for Bill, because I'm sure we're all anxious to see no. 1 hit the water again!
