I went to so much trouble to make my submissions look nice:
"Start" menu -> "All Programs" -> "Accessories" -> "Paint"

While we're talking about picture editing....
My picture has a few lines of white in the upper righthand corner that I was wondering if someone would volunteer to trim off for me and then maybe Dave could re-upload the trimmed picture. I've been able to let it go for a while but it just looks unfinished with the white in the corner. Every time I try to trim it I end up with a 7kb file that has lost some of the quality that Vikash was able to maintain when he did the initial shrinking (thanks again). So if anybody would like to do me a favor here is the file -

Thanks a million guys.

Huh. You mean that vertical gray streak? I wonder how that got in there. Maybe that's part of a tree or something?
Try this one:

Thanks Vikash, I think that did it. I think that white is from me not getting the picture properly scanned, aka it was tilted and I didn't get the limits set far enough in. It's nothing big but one of those things that bugs me each time I see my picture up there (which I still love Dave

).

It's just a few dozen pixels' difference. Look at the upper right; there's a vertical line that's different between the two images.

Do you have to blow the pics up to see them?

It helps. Or just put them side-by-side on a dark background and look carefully. "Magic-eye" them if you have the ability.

It was only like 2-3 pixels wide and in the upper right hand corner. Pretty innoticable but since it was my picture I noticed it everytime I saw it and it finally got to me

- to which thanks again V, much better.

Both of those are nice Jake, but both are taller than 130px. Fix that, and I'd probably choose the top one.

haha, i finally remembered to resize the pictures (see 3 posts up). does anybody know how to make the wheels look better? like not all distorted? or are they just stuck like that?

email me the originals, or post them, and I'll resize.
