Larger s Guide Photos!

BIG, BIG Photos ...
Yes! You can have larger photos in your guide!
Using the Guide Image Uploader
The Guide editor has an image uploader that
automatically resamples and shrinks your uploaded images to fit in a 200x200
area. If your images are smaller than 200, the Guide editor will show them at
true size. This 100x75 thumbnail image was uploaded and displayed at true size.
Next to it is the same image stretched larger by using the corner pullers.
Notice that stretching an image larger doesn't look very good, butpulling it
smaller can be useful.Caveat! There is an issue with stretching - read on.

There is a one-time only opportunity to stretch an
image by using the corner pullers IF you
are using Internet Explorer as your browser when editing. After
you have stretched the image once, and then previewed, you can NOT return and resize the image again, or an
error message will display and your only recourse is to delete the image and
upload again.
In Firefox/Netscape browsers,
the image can not be stretched AT ALL.
In doing so, the browser introduces a CSS styleattribute to the image tag that
is rejected by the Guide editor.
