Since many folks seem to have an issue with making scans smaller here's a 1 minute lesson and the way I do it. For the record I greatly stink at computers and technology. (even though I sell them) After you have your scan made right click on the little icon of your scan. Then you "open with" the program called "paint". Almost all pc's will have it on them. When it opens look at the top of the screen in the instruction bar. There is the word "image"...click on it. Then the 2nd item in the pull down menu is "stretch/skew". Click on it. Then you will see 2 "100"'s in the boxes. Make them any number smaller and then hit enter. You will have a smaller image. You can do it as many times as you want to any pic. I always keep both numbers the same so the image isn't distorted. A teeny bit of practice (literally 5 minutes)...and you should be a pro. I hope this helps as the smaller the image posted on this board the better....best regards
