Ok here is my first attempt at attaching a picture of my tank. borrowed the camera and took this on Dec 25. It's a picture of the left side of the tank with some of my favorite corals and fish friends

SaltAddict,
Here is an image resizer and thumbnail maker that I wrote earlier this week. You can download it from my site at :
http://www.kcshop.com/downloads/thumbnailer.exe
it does a nice job of resizing and compressing images... it is available to those at this forum at no cost. I did not include gif of tiff support on this version. The file size about 872kb and should not take to long to download. You can just save it on your desktop and run it from there.
If you have any questions, you can e-mail me at kelly@wononline.net
Best wishes...

TangTang and Von_Rahvin,
I am glad it works well for you. It was written for those on this forum. I have a few other programs that will resize images, but I did not know if many on this forum had one, so I decided to write one.
I have seen so many large images, more so in the past, and especially those that have their own web pages. I have a dialup connection( I live on a farm in a very rural area), and it takes forever to view the images, so I did it more for me...
Just consider the program as a late Christmas present to all on the forum. I have learned alot, hope I have contributed atleast a little, and wish everyone the best of luck with there tanks. Knowledge is a wonderful thing, the things we learn here if presented in a book could cost a fortune. How do you put a price tag on a person's lifetime knowledge and experiences.
I have a little knowledge when it comes to writing programs, and thought I would share it with all.
Again Happy Holidays !!!

Kelly: Again, YOU'RE THE BEST!!!
Heather: Thanks for your comments on the rockwork. It is still in progress; but, your support is very much appreciated! Friend of my tonight asked why I didn't putty things in place... Putty! But then how would I move things every few days?! <smile>
Not sure if it is maiden's hair. But, thanks!!! Now, I have a name I can look up!
I was told it was "grass algae" LOL! I love it! I don't do a thing with it! It, along with a few mushrooms, survived the death of my BTA. Only, the muck didn't seem to faze the hair/grass a bit. I still have mushrooms trying to make a come back. Boy, what a mistake the BTA was! (Good LFS-Bad Customer)
Anyway, since it was sold as hair algae and I'm such a newbie, I freaked everytime someone here mentioned their tanks being over taken by it!!! And, of course, I went out and paid money for the stuff!!! I've since seen the problem algae much to my relief!
The hair/grass continues to grow over the rock it came on. I've got a small piece of LR rubble resting on it now hoping it will jump! <SMILE> I'd like to put some in each of my tanks for free!!!
