Luckily you link back to your Photobucket album, and not straight to the actual photo.
So it shows in a decent size, only when you click on the photo again, it goes to 4073 x 2296 pixels.

Try to find a resize program online, resize your photos and change the settings in your Photobucket album to view the actual photo after one click :TU:

You can also change the settings on your FinePix S2950 camera :Smarty:

Keep us informed about the model kit :TU: !!

Click thumbnail to view the actual photo :Comp:
