Hiya!
And an especially big HELLO!to my new followers :-) Nice to have you on board....
I still haven't quite resolved my lack of photo space on blogger/Picasa although I have managed to increase my space by deleting a few duplicate pictures..... And I've also discovered that many of my photos are pushing 2Mb in size!!! But a minor cropping operation in paint can reduce them to 500kb.... I don't understand :-( Thank you to everyone who has offered advice - I really appreciate it. I'm going to explore each option in turn and see if I can find a way around it before I give in to monthly payments! I'll keep you updated....
Anyway, I do have a card to share with you:
One of my fave LOTV images - oh, who am I kidding??? I love them all!
I tried out my most recent purchase.... A sizzix photo corner die - I'm quite pleased!
Challenges:
Cards for Men - Kicking back
Sketch 'n' stash - Fab sketch (ooops! Missed the dealine!)
Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - In the garden
Paperplay Challenges - Destruction (Iwas just in the mood after my nasty blogger problems!)
Moving Along With The Times - Keep it real
Back again soon - and I might get round to posting a piccie of the new car (which is fabulous!) if blogger will let me!
Love 'n' hugs,

Hi Mel,
Gorgeous card,i know what you mean they're all soo cute :) x
Mel you can change the size of your pictures in paint by selecting "resize" from the main menu bar, its just underneath crop. Then if you select pixels rather than percentage you can change the size to 800. Make sure maintain aspect ratio aspect is ticked.
I usually do this just before I save my picture. It does look small but when you upload into blogger you can select the size you want your image to be.
Hope this helps. Your card is fab btw.
Tammy.... I think I love you! :-) Mel xx

Stunning male card Mel.I love the fab image and your design is gorgeous :D
I always crop and resize my pics now aftr i nearly used all my space in picasso.i went in and resized all the pics that were already in there too.took me a few weeks gradually doing them bit by bit.
i`ve had my blog 2 and half years and have used 38% of my space.

This is so gorgeous Mel! Love the image and fab design. Hope you've got the photo problems sorted now... I've no idea how much of my space I've used, but I do always reduce the pixel sizes quite small so fingers crossed it's ok! Hugs, Lisa x
lovely card!!
with regard to your storage, why not open a free photobucket account - you can store loads of pics on there and then add the URL of the image when you upload them.
