Glad you like my pictures Guy! :) on the size thing, if you are using windows you can use windows paint to resise. resising to something in the 1024 X 768 to 1600 X 1200 size range will generally be good for uploading here.

Programs like irfanview are also a good option for resizing pics (more options than the simple windows paint). Even the software that came with your camera may have a resize option (make sure to resave as a new filename, so as not to overwrite the original) If you have viewnx that came with your coolpix it should have a convert option which allows you to set the size, it can be used with any jpg :)

Tony.

Hi Scott,
you are right about '' guy '' used in many different ways like this :
Are you that guy ?
However, since I am a French speaking person,
guy in French is pronounced: Gui
Just wanted to let you know in case...
But I am sure you knew that already.

It will help reduce my shipping fees.
Be well and enjoy! Bob

I too buy most from the US. I just started to try the regular Post to reduce cost, we'll see how that goes. Thanks for the info about foreigners going to Saigon. Yes Cambo is an audio/photo wasteland.
So are you saying there are actually some DIY people in Cambodia? I would be shocked!
I too am a semi-pro Photographer! (with relations in New Brunswick/PEI).
Be well Guy. Oh, I'm also a Friday the 13th baby (January) :) We are few and far between...

Hi Bob,
One time when I bought lots of speakers (Danny) from GR Research I got them shipped via DBSchenker air cargo, expensive, yes, but came to about 15% of the cost of the speakers. I also use friends-relatives coming for vacation to Vietnam and of course, when I go back to Montreal, I bring back as much as I can without avoiding the excess weight surcharge.
Maybe I made a mistake, I wanted t say that professional photographic equipment in Cambodia is difficult to find, I don't know about audiophiles or audio equipment.
I am not a professional photographer, just a semi-professional, but I sell professional photographic equipment, therefore, when I do shooting, I can borrow professional equipment from our business, very convenient, don't have to invest in pro-equipment.
If yo ever get lost and find yourself in Saigon let me know we will meet and talk about our commoun job and hobby.

Hi all,
going back (Temporarely - 3 or 4 months) to my home country Canada
(Montreal to be more precise) on the 26th of this month
to take care of personnal business that cannot be taken care of from planet Vietnam.
I will bring my beloved Grace Mondo Internet table radio and some USB keys with music that I will play via my laptop, but I will buy locally a small computer speaker - sub combo and a Schiit Fulla 2. I cannot live without the music I love.
