Title: Ad in classfied
Post by: vandeman17 on March 01, 2011, 02:58:21 PM: I have an ad in the classified that doesn't have any pictures and I can't figure out how to add them so I thought I would post them here as well so people can see the bow. If the mods want to move the pictures over that would be great too. The listing is for the Browning Rage.

I just noticed that. They are off my folks costco.com account so I will see if I can figure out how to get bigger ones. I am not too great at techy stuff.

Post by: vandeman17 on March 01, 2011, 03:08:06 PM: Anybody have any idea how to save the picture off costco.com? It will only allow me to save the little preview one and not the big one.

Post by: bobcat on March 01, 2011, 03:09:07 PM: Can you right click on it and do a "save picture as"?

Post by: vandeman17 on March 01, 2011, 03:10:38 PM: I tried that but it doesn't give me that option. It only gives me the save picture option on the little thumbnail of the picture.

Post by: jackelope on March 01, 2011, 03:28:55 PM: The settings on the camera are set to take the pics that small is my thought. There's no way to make them bigger without blowing them out.

Post by: bobcat on March 01, 2011, 03:30:00 PM: I don't think it's the camera. I think you just need to download the pictures from Costco rather than trying to save the thumbnails. Somebody on here will probably be able to provide a better answer, I just have not dealt with Costco's photo center for quite a while.

If it gives you the option to download it, do that. Don't save it because you're then saving a thumbnail which is what you've got. I didn't pay enough attention to see these were thumbnails. Can you have someone email you the original jpegs?

My only option for the big pictures is to order them since it is on the costco.com account. I tried to have my mom email them to me but she is horrible with computers and the only way she knows to do anything with pictures is to download them to her costco account. I have showed her 100 times how to do it but she will never remember! :bash:

There are xeveral ways to do this the easy way. I just don't have the time right now to explain.

:dunno:

Post by: jackelope on March 01, 2011, 03:53:12 PM: I added the teeny tiny pics to your ad...it's better than nothing IMO.

I will call her tonight and see if I can talk her through it... :dunno: I just want to get rid of the bow to someone who can use it. I already have a bow and my old man won't shoot it. :(
