Ferrari Mailing List: Re: OT - Photo Attributes

[LarryT (l02turner]

Hi Rick,
These photos will be published in Excellence - a quality, slick national 
Porsche only magazine - can I just use the "Save As" function?

Just tried it and Viola!  Works fine - just tried it and ended up with a 8MB 
photo - so I can reduce it by 1/2 and the quality will be even better (they 
asked for 1-4MB).  I use a Nikon digital that's pretty good - not $1000 
camera good - but $250 good.  It's 3-4 years old but still works pretty 
good.

Thanks much for the help!!  I'll let everyone know when my article is on 
sale.  ;-)
