rockbobmel Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Anyone here interested in my Fisher X-100 integrated tube amp? It has all original tubes in it from 1961 and they are dead quiet and powerful. I had it checked out by the local tube guru, he cleaned it and changed one cap, and that's it. I hooked it up to my K-Horns and the thing was incredible. I think it is 18 WPC. The tubes ate Tele, amperex, and mullard. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I'm thinking you could resize your pics before uploading them to the server. Or Klipsch could prevent uploads over a certain size. A 1.7 meg jpg is too big. It's nice that their software resizes the pics, but they take forever to load the first time. Making is 600 pixels wide would do wonders for the speed. btw, nice Fisher.

So far, I have them copied into a new folder in My Pictures. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Mobley Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 have you looked/tried the picasa software from Google? I tried it, very cool. It searches your hard drive(s) and finds every pic you have, including ones forgotten about. I used it to organize hundreds of pics, haven't tried it for resizing. It claims to do it. And, it's free.

Marvel Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Doesn't MS Photo Editor come with XP (the OS) or just with MS Office? If you have Photo Editor, you just open the photo and go to the image menu. Under that is resize. If you leave the "allow distortion" box unchecked, as you change oone value the other will change as well. Attached are a couple of screen shots stuck in as one image.

Cal Blacksmith Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Yes, Please resize your photos. I am on a fast dial up (only thing available) and it takes several minutes to download your photos. Much too long to stay interested in. A file size of 60K is about right for photos on the net. They load quickly and look fine. A file that size should be enough to get an 8 x 10 at 72 dpi. Jpeg. In addition to reducing the size of the image, reduce the DPI as anything more than 72 is a waste on monitors. A printed image is photo quality at 300 DPI and is way over kill on a pc monitor.

NOSValves Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 When this new forum software was in beta testing I warned then that the way it handled photo's was going to be a huge problem for dial up users. Heck this thread is a pain even for broadband users. They need to put a cap on the file size at the very least. Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryC Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Guys, in addition to having all those problems, every time I call up the thread AGAiN, my PC/XP Pro/AOL browser takes the same huge time to re-load them all over again. That didn't happen before. Before with the previous forum software, it would only take a lot of time to load them the first time, and, for subsequent views, retrieve them very quickly from somewhwere on my computer (?temporary internet files?). Is this something on my computer settings, or with the forum software? Do you have the same problem? Thanks! Yes, MS Photo Editor came with my XP Pro.

NOSValves Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Try raising the size of your temporary internet files folder size. In IE go to "tools" then "internet options" one of the available options that pop up will be "temporary internet files" click the button that says settings. Raise the value but be careful to not allow IE to use up all your hard drive space. This wouldn't be neccesary if they simply limited file sizes. I haven't tried this myself but it should work unless the problem is your PC is just to slow or has to little memory to draw all the pictures like the one I'm on now.

Olorin Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Good thought Craig, but it won't work. It's because these are .asp pages, not .html pages. asp pages load elements anew every time, while html page elements will be cached.
