An OK cow but just a tad low on the body condition scale.

Her reproductive health and condition of the next calf would likely be better if she was fleshed up a bit.

Rose, I'm not familiar with "photobucket." There are some very knowledgeable picture posters here, such folk as the Gator Dude (AKA Gatorboy.)

I "preprocess" pix to meet the file size limit by using Irfanview. Irfanview is a very good easy to use graphic application that is very intuitive and will do everything needed to size a picture for posting here.

Irfanview is FREE! It is one of the best written pieces of FREEWARE I have ever encountered. This from a Googlel on Irfanview...

Download IrfanView
Thank you very much for downloading and using IrfanView. Since year 2003, IrfanView has over 1 Million downloads EVERY month! (counting 3-4 major mirrors) ...

Irfanview

There are lots of "features" in Irfanview but you don't have to learn the whole thing to resize pix, just a couple commands in the menus. You can drag and drop a picture file on the irfanview desktop icon to open a picture. Then explore the pull down menus and yo will find a choice that lets you resize the picture. Do that and then save it under a different file name and your ready to post the picture here.

There are lots of suitable applications to do this but Irfanview is free and works well.

Pat (and Rose), I agree that Irfanview is a great and easy piece of Freeware. I have however been using Pixresizer (also very FREE), and it works GREAT. I make the setting as "Custom", set at 640 X 450 and it saves a copy of the photo you started with but with an automatically renamed file name, in the same location. It's Here
