What do you guys use to compress jpg's? I used MS Photo Editor and went from 2k+ pixels wide to 700 so as not to bust the frames. However, the pics always seem to turn out fuzzy. Any ideas???
I use an old version of Paint Shop Pro to resize images but I post so few pics that I can't say the results would be good for everything. Yours have a noticeable 'jagginess' to them - re-sizing isn't working very well for you. If you have a link to one or more of the pics I can re-size them using PSP or Irfanview to see if it can do better out of the box. Or e-mail them to me.

Can you email large files Mike? If so you can email them to me so i can host them, vids right?

PM me and I'll get my email if you need it.

Good times today guys, I think that today was a little more intense than the last drive. Not sure if it was the roads or what but I was definitely reaching the limits of my setup and actually screeched more than a few corners.
