Part of the problem is that the windows software may change the image file format before uploading it to the photo frame. It may also do other image processing as well. It would be nice if they were configured to act like USB storage devices, and used standard image formats so you could just resize the picture and upload it. (Maybe the ones that will accept memory cards act that way?) Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
