Free Image Hosting
Anyone know of an easy-to-register, painless site that I can go to host a 2.4 MB image.

I am trying to find some place that will hold a scanned image of the K/E Plan for a New Direction in America.

Thanks for your help

4. cut down the file
use a software program to reduce the colors - you won't be able to see the difference with your naked eye and everyone will thank you for not posting such a "heavy image. Then, you can use the frog.

12. ya can't do it in paint
you need something like Photoshop or PaintShop. I'm sure there are others, too. Its a simple setting in those programs, you can adjust until you are happy with the look and weight. You could easily bring an image as described down under 100k.

There are some standalone products that do it. Not recommending this one, but it describes the process.

11. Hey, thanks
That's excellent. I've been looking for a good freebie since the one that a DU member offered went down. Did that ever go up again?
