I’m a picture bandwidth hog

By: Cao, Filed under: Blogosphere , General @ 6:30 am

I really love to put pictures in my posts. So I’ve just about exceed my bandwidth already. AGAIN. I just upgraded to the next largest bandwidth package and ate up all my bandwidth. Damn.

What I can’t figure out is–when I upload a picture, and figure out it’s the wrong size, I go back and re-size it, but I don’t know how to delete the big one that I just uploaded. So there are a lot of pictures that I should delete…I just don’t know how to see them or look at them. I don’t know enough of about this freakin’ system, that’s what the problem is. And I hate to keep bugging Lisa about it.

So…I’m going to try to chill with the pictures, if I can help it. I’m going to try to stop uploading them, and stop posting them on the front page. Yikes. Can I stop? Can I exercise some restraint? I hope so. There’s only a few days before January 1.

If anybody has some tips on this, let me know.

    Convert them all to gifs — they will not have the resolution of photographs, but they will be much, much smaller…

    Thanks for the tip Ogre, I think I’ve been using jpegs and bmps.
