There are any number of approaches to achieving this and mine is undoubtedly not the most efficient but it works for me.

On any web-based image, right click and copy image.
I then paste into Powerpoint, fiddle with the sizing and positioning and then, if I've got more than one image, I select all and group.

Then I copy and paste into Paint and save as a jpeg. Upload / host on Photobucket and post image link on here.

There are probably far easier ways to do it (ie, fewer steps) but it works for me because messing about with positioning in Powerpoint is easy and copying across to Paint allows me to save as a jpeg and it also reduces the resolution automatically.

I think I can export an image from Powerpoint and save as a .jpeg but I've been using this routine for some time and it's fast and works for me.

I've also got Photoshop but that seems a bit sledgehammer to crack a nut and I find it difficult to reduce file size without totally losing the resolution whereas my routine seems to deal with that without my intervention.

That would be cool! I may just have to edit the story for that!

I'm thinking loose and long over her shoulders say about to the middle of her back!

Darn no swoon meter smiles, drat!

I really like the bit about Ginny drawing Ed and the children.. makes it much more personal and adds a lot to her character. OoooooH what an ending Matt!!
Dying (no pun intended... well actually.... yes pun definitely intended!! )  to see where you are going with this story!
 

Just added a bit more to chapter four! I'm trying to write while I'm programming radios!

Ben Cartwright and Ed Straker have quite a bit in common, both of them men of integrety.

Ben was a gentleman in the series.!

LOL Fat Ed! No I was talking about personality! Hoss is the biggest but Ben is a big boy as well! And tall 6' 1'' and a half.

Oh. I didn't mean it like that!
