Re: Compressing A Large Photo

A question to all you pumpkin/computer geeks (I learnt that term), How
would I know what size a picture would be once we get a scanner? I don't
know if I'm the only one that doesn't know  this or not but would like to
know because I am going to grow a BIG pumpkin even if we have to move it in
the house and find another place for us to live. And I intend to send in a
picture.
