I'd love to share some photos of our collection but my files are too many kb. They average 600 to 900kb and the upload is limited to 200kb. Any thoughts. Thanks in advance. T.
Also I want to share  how to make another bottle cleaning tool but would like to attach photos.

If you are still using windows xp, you can download "power tools" from the Microsoft website.  There is one there called "picture resizer" and when you install it, all you gotta do is "right click" on the file you want to resize and then select one of 3 predetermined sizes.  It will create a copy of the picture as the new size and leaves the original alone. For simplicity, this one is tough to beat.

Here is a FREE program that allows you to resize one or several at once (batch) and it works on XP and Vista.

To reduce a pics size in Windows, go to your pictures file right click on the pic and choose "open with" then "paint". If that option's not there browse for it. After that, the option will always be there. In Paint at the top Click Image then resize/skew. In the two boxes type 80%, 75%, 70%, what ever it takes to get the pic down to a manage size. 300x700 or so will get you a nice close up of a single bottle.
Then to crop it click the box thing in the first pic then right click on the pic and choose "select all". Now you can slide the picture to the left by left clicking and holding on the picthis will crop the left side. Now drag the pic up as much as needed and crop the top. Click on the white space, this will close "select all" Now left on the blue dot in the second pic and close up the white space and as much of the right side pic as needed. Do the same for the bottom.
Any of that make sense? Just fool around you'll get the hang of it.
Lobey.
