As some of you may notice, I tend to use photographs when submitting a post. I believe nothing conveys the message like a good detail photo when illustrating a point. To crop, reduce, insert text, or otherwise modify an original photo, I use the free Window Paint program that has been bundled with the software package on every computer I have ever purchased.
Using the program, this entire photo essay was downloaded to VAF as ONE image. It is easy to resize, crop, and alter your photographs in an infinite number of ways. I am certainly no expert using Windows Paint and I am the first to admit there is plenty of stuff to learn. Still, even this admittedly crude and basic tutorial should help you to modify photographs stored in your own collection. Practice with Windows Paint so that you can include a good detailed photo with your next post. Try it. It's easy!
