Title: I can't see the R hand side of some pictures
Post by: shelagh on December 14, 2008, 02:19:16 PM

OK I realise I am only semi-literate when it comes to computers, but Johnnie D has posted a lovely picture of yours truly and him outdoors, but I can only see myself when I enlarge it.  I don't think it's just 'cos my waistband has expanded somewhat, but Brian might get a bit miffed if he cannot see himself in full technicolour.  Can anyone help with understandable advice, I'd really appreciate it?

Shelagh, some wives would ask why you are complaining :D. I won't keep on digging because I want you both to continue talking to me.
I have no technical advice to offer except to buy a computer with a larger screen.

Hi Shelagh.  Johnny D has forgotten to resize his pictures before he posted them, so they are too big to appear on the screen.  Most screens will show up to 1024 x 768 pixels whereas John's pictures are a great deal more than this, hence the need to scroll.

OK Diane, so far so good I understand that.  Trouble is, I can scroll vertically (they can't touch you for it) but I can't scroll horizontally so where do I go from here.  No comments please about people from an island to the west of us who would say 'If I were you I wouldn't start from here.' ???

Shelagh

you will find there is a scroll bar for left and right at the bottom of the three pictures when you have enlarged only one. So if it is the first you have enlarged then scroll down to the bottom of the third and there it is

naturally I wanted all of you in the picture so I did this
