i know help !!!! how do i get my pictures from my computer onto the site ??
You can put up files from your computer by adding an attachment (it's the icon above the text box that looks like a paper clip, right next to the white smiley face). You can only attach files that are of a certain size or smaller, and you are allotted a total attachment budget of about 1MB (I believe). Once you hit that paper clip icon, a box will pop up that should help explain that.

You can always use one of the free online services for larger files, but there are ways to reduce the size of those image files. You can use any number of photo editor programs to (a) reduce the size of the image and (b) change the image to a JPEG image with some compression.

If you have questions about which program to use, just let us know which OS you are running (Windows, Mac, or other).

i am using windows xp, i have something i won in a competition called microsoft digital image suite which i tried using to get the image size down, i managed to reduce the size from 2.5MB to 700Kb which is a improvement but not quite enough yet

Anyways i am a very tidy person in general, my partner has bestowed me with the name "HOUSE NATZY) as i am always running after her cleaning everything up :eek:

It is actually quite strange my center speaker for some reason has lots of noise on it. I have checked to ensure that there are no large power drawing devices around it, and the cable is very short. My left and right speakers have at least 3 times less hiss shall we say than the center one ??? Is this normal, is it because i only have an entry level AVR ?? any advice would be appreciated, i mean you can hardly hear it from the listening position but i am a kind of perfectionist and would like to get the most out of the system, and why should'nt i right, i mean i payed for every feature the device has to offer so i should dam well be able to bask in its glory ;).

I probably should have also stated a few more specs now that i think of it,

Sub has 160W of power (enough to revive the next door neighbour from his heart attack when he feels the ground shake when i am watching TRANSFORMERS).

And receiver outputs 500W of power across 5 channels which at the time i thought was pretty reasonable. Only having one optical input is a bit of a pain though (currently used for the dvd player) and i need to do something now the xbox. Will probably switch the dvd player to coax and the xbox 360 too optical.

Mains can handle 110W and center 120W, overall sound is astounding compared to my old mini system which i donated to my sister.

As you can probably tell this is a tiny apartment which we live in but the sound stage is in a completely different class of its own.

When i start working at the end of the year (cant wait so i can start upgrading everything :cool:) then we will also move so i got more room for the home theater and can start making something craft (the misses is into that sort of thing, and will be looking at doing a themed room) also i can get the tower speakers i want for the front, but for such a small room the bookshelves do just fine.

My partner is fully into the idea of a themed room after showing her the stuff on this web page, chances are you guys have already seen it but just in cae i thought i would post it anyway.

I went to great efforts to try and hide those suckers, took me a while, everything is nicely cable tied to hold it in place and everything i am quite proud of it :)
