Sial! I just signed her up...and thought that would be a good first step to get her here. Anyway, before I complete the entire process, what do you and Kadek think of this for her pic?

http://www.sundream.com/~majapahit/images/Eri.jpg

While we've talked about this, (Eri and I), I'm taking matters into my own hands...to be sure she joins. Bad man? Or loving man? I don't know. But it's very Balinese, (on my part), so she can't object too much. :D

A few more encouraging posts like yours Ni Luh, then I can sit her down, (and she's great on the computer), and show her the....how do the French call it?....Fait acomplee, or something like that? :D

Otherwise, she'll grab one of my many kris, and that will be that! :shock:

Well, I tried, but got this BS:

The avatar image file size must be less than 6 KB

HUH? I can't reduce my wife to a measly 6 kilobites!

Cheap, tight as bark to a tree Belanda! :D :D :D :D

Just kidding, but that is VERY, VERY tiny, nes pas? No wonder I thought Jimbo was wearing a sock on his head, (his old pic) and not a construction hat. Come on Bert!

Welcome Eri :D

Your picture looks very nice.

Roy: I got the same problem as you. I used Paint Shop Pro free download to do pooochie's pic, it's very good at reducing colour depth etc. to get the files size down without losing quality.

Eri: I Hope you will help keep everyone in their place.

Roy, try taking the original image and re-saving it as a "gif" file instead of a "jpg" and then reduce the size of the gif.

You should be able to retain more clarity (and less of the grainy look) in the reduction.

OK, I'll try that, otherwise, get your magnifying glasses out! I'm good with Adobe, but I never use gif file formats...so I guess I'll have to learn, or my wife will look smaller than gecko poop...which will not make her very happy! :shock:

Welcome Bu Eri (Roy :) )

I edited the first picture you had in photoshop with maximum size and minimun compression (just below 6kb). If it looks satisfactory just download it on your harddrive and upload it in the profile.

Hi Tommy,

funny that, just right now, I've send an edited avatar to Roy by email, maybe he is bombed now with Eri's images :shock:

So you see, dear Eri, everybody is looking forward to your entry on this forum!
So welcome on board and curious regarding your first posting here!

best regards
Thorsten

Roy, Ibu Eri picture is beautiful, we are now hoping for other signs to come. The suspens get unbearable.
The French word you were looking for is "fait accompli". Do you know how it does translate it into Bahasa Indo ? "Difetakomplikan". Really. So Ibu Eri might tell you : "Saya tidak suka dihadapkan pada fetakompli (or difetakomplikan)". But we all hope she won't. Would be really nice to have her with us :)

Welcome Ibu Eri

I am so looking forward to you joining our discussion on this Forum.

Ibu Eri, everyone is so looking forward for you to join this forum and I am sure a big party has already been planned for your arrival. :wink:

Oom Roy, excellent choice! As Jean said, Ibu Eri's photo is very beautiful and she is very Ayu.

Regards,

MATUR SUKSMA Thorsten and Tommy! Thanks to you, Mats and everyone else I finally figured out how to get this done.

So, now I can spring what Pak Jean Pascal has informed me is the "fait accompli" on Eri later today. This is perfect timing with the weekend coming on...no taking the boys to school and all.

Again, many, many thanks. Now I've got to coral our cousin Wayan Dedik to join. So tell me what you guys think of this avatar for him:

(He's going to kill me!!!!)

Yes, Wayan is a GREAT guy and you would really like him. He's the head of our gamelan in Bunutan and has lectured and demonstrated gamelan in several areas of the US.

I did use Thorsten's pic that he sent me via e-mail only because it showed a larger area of her face. I might "play around" with it later to see if I can improve it. Thanks again for your help Tommy...and you too Thorsten!
