I resized many times my bordered pic and it never worked out. So I should just trash all my bordered pics?

Oscar, I did. Pic above was resized today on photobucket to 600X800 with borders included. No it's not difficult to resize but it obviously doesn't work perfectly. That's probably why the new software has the built in tolerance and accepted my picture once resized even though it's slightly over the 800 X 600.

Hey Trent
Is that Liz's watch?? Or did you get it from Roland?
What strap is on it? Looks like the Sinn strap.

Congrats. I love this watch!

Yes my photos work again! What I did was add border then saved it and then resized it with the slider adjustment that changes both height and width at the same time. Hope this helps others. ThumbsUp02.gif

Thanks Brice! I ordered it from Roland with the white hands and then put the Sinn large deployment strap on it. Pretty much Lized it out, she gets all the credit and the Sinn fits the case like a glove! subtlelaugh.gif
I thought it was going to be huge but it wears great! Really glad I ordered one as Roland has sold out again.

Thanks Chris!
I am really glad I waited for this model of the 2k case. I really liked the wilson watch works with the red tip seconds hand version but something about the black and white stealth dial just popped for me!
