Finally posted a pic to my registry set, but...

MorrellMan

when I view the pic, an internet message comes up regarding a scripting error, and do I want to continue running scripts on this page, yes or no? Whichever one I click, the message goes away and the card is shown in all its brilliance. Anybody have any suggestions, explanations, etc.? Thanks to MadMan54 and virtualizard for helping me along the way!

BTW, the set is 1959 Morrell Meats Dodgers, and it's the Podres card. I want to post pics of all the cards once I get this process down. Since the backs of these cards are all the same, I planned on posting a typical back scan for the Roseboro card.

Edit: I just went into someone else's set and looked at their pictures and the same message came up. I guess this is a PC problem of mine, I'd appreciate anybody's input. Thanks again!

Mark,
When I click on your Podres photo in the registry it comes up fine, although a bit large. You may want to reduce the size of the scan before uploading to PSA so that the whole card is visible without having to scroll down to see the whole thing. You may have to find the right size by trial and error. Just my opinion. You can also check what your scan will look like by going to “List/edit Image files” right after you upload. This way, you don’t have to wait a couple of days for PSA to confirm your changes before you see what the scan will look like on the registry.

Hope this helps a fellow “regional” collector.

Rick - thnx for the tips - I was actually hoping to get the card(s) to show up in that little window that appears in the upper left corner when you click on the camera - can you tell me how to do that? I tried to reduce the size of the image and I ended up just cutting the picture into a quarter size frame, but the image stayed the same size!

Mark,
I use Microsoft Photo Editor, which allows you to resize an image in inches instead of pixels. I resize the image to a height of 3 inches (the width shrinks proportionately) and the entire image can be seen on the registry without scrolling, but you can certainly make it smaller so it will just take up the top corner. Then when you save it you just have to reduce the quality by some percentage to get the image under 100k. Most photo software packages have a "resize" image option somewhere.

Thanks again Rick - I've had some buddies help me with this but I guess it's time to roll up my sleeves and figure it out for myself. I've got a thing called photoisland - would that be the program for posting and editing pics?

rickster

Mark,
don't know about photoisland. Some photo programs simply allow printing with very limited editing capabilities, others allow all sorts of editing. Each printer manufacturer has their own software, and each program operates differently. Sorry I can't help more, maybe someone else on the board will know photoisland.

here is your image reduced to 2" height by Photo Editor. It will probably be larger if you put this image in the registry, not sure why this happens.

Rick - thank you for the time invested in providing that pic - what a rush to see that card - I love it!!!
