Has anyone else noticed that the picture uploader is very very slow? is there anything that can be d?

It has a lot to do with your file size. It isn't necessary to load a full screen image in hubpages. Scale it down to the 400 px by?

Range and it should load faster. Full size images are only useful when viewing on the entire screen.

Launch Adobe Photoshop-( CS3 or 7.0 )Go to FileClick on openSelect your photo, click openGo to FileSelect -"Save forWeb and Devices"Below the preset (at the right top) two drop-down menus are there, one to select "optimized file format" and the other "compression quality". From the first drop-down menu (optimized file format) choose "JPEG" and from the below one select "medium". In "Quality" slider drag it to "50".

Leave other options unchanged. Save it. Thats all.

Not for me. The picture uploader is fast as usually. Maybe it´s your internet connection.

I have a very slow internet connection, it seems to upload faster if I re-save my pictures in jpeg format (by going into paint program and simply hitting save). They upload WAY faster.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
