Ischnura verticalis - Eastern Forktail male
john and jane balaban-Thank you! It appears they'll all need serious cropping and resizing. I'm working on a fix so I can begin editing/changing all the images I uploaded yesterday. Thank you again for all your patience and assistance!

The images you already posted
don't need resizing since they are already small enough. They just need to be cropped. Almost any image manipulation software will allow you to do that. Once you have it cropped, then click on Edit under the original post, and scroll down to Browse, and upload the new cropped image in the place of the old uncropped one. That's it!

It's the images you said you couldn't post because they were too big that might need resizing. But even those might be fine after they have been cropped. Just check to make certain they are less than 2MB after they have been cropped and you will be able to post them.
