How about taking a little more time and cropping the images so that the fossil fills the images.

CROP, CROP, CROP. Use your image-editing software to crop the image to only what is pertinent. Leave only a narrow margin around the fossil. The more of your kitchen counter-top in the image, the smaller the fossil image will be.

Then, you can . . .

REDUCE THE FILE SIZE. The images directly from a camera usually are too large for posting directly to a forum. You can constrain the proportions of your image to produce exactly 500 KB (I routinely use 700 - 800 KB for my images now). Save in JPEG format.

Guys--if any of you need help with adjusting or cropping or resizing images feel free to send me a private message. I'm a digital artist for a living (I do video games) so I have the programs and don't mind helping you out. You can see my work on my site bobcooksey.net if you're interested

Kind of flattened in cross section; reptile-like?
