Can I get help making it?

[Lace69]

My email is lace_lace69@yahoo.com

[Lace69]

Or this one. Can someone convert and email it to me?

[Lace69]

Thank you DJ!!!!!!!

[Jammer]

DJ, how did you do that? I can't seem to shrink any of my pics down to the 12K maximum size requirement. BTW Lace, either one of those photos makes a great avatar.

[Lace69]

Thanks jammer!

[VWSupport]

I love both photos...however would find it impossible to choose one for your avatar, they are both so sexy!

I generally use Photoshop myself to change images to a selected size, but pretty sure you can do the same in the basic Paint program on Windows, the pixel size you need is 90x90 pixels.

[Lace69]

Thank you Kiki!

[DarknLadyJedi]

Any image edit program should work. I used PS Elements to change Lace's. I set it at 120px for the longest side and then selected to save for web. That actually got them both under 7KB.

The save for web function strips out some of the underlying code that allows easy editing, but since it is generally your final product...

[Lace69]

Thanks again!

[DarknLadyJedi]

Thanks again!

My pleasure <ewg>

[Lace69]

Would this be better?

[Jammer]

I can easily re-size my photo to 90 x 90, but the file size still exceeds the 12K size limit. I've tried MS picture manager, paint and PS. I'm sure it's something simple, but I can't seem to figure it out. Lace69, maybe I should just use your last photo as my avatar...you look much better in your photo than I do in mine...

[FAQ]

use http://www.picresize.com/
you can set the custom pic size to 90pixels
and you can request a max KB size, too.
You'll be letting the site determine the quality

[Lace69]

So the last pic....

Can I get it also...send to email.

[Jammer]

I think I finally got it. I took a screen shot of the photo, then I cropped it, re-sized it and saved it with 'paint'. All other ways I tried to reduce it left the file size 15K or more, regardless of the number of pixels I reduced it to. Thanks for all the help and suggestions.

[Lace69]

Me to! Did it!

I do like sex.

Why am I not approached in a bar more? In fact never.

Tell me which bar you are at, and I'll approach you. :lol:

Serious, it could be anything, or it could be nothing at all. I can tell you for sure that it's not your physical attributes.

[Lace69]

Thank you jammer!

I have sat at a busy Barry alone for hours and not even a conversation. I'm trying to understand how to get attention.

[Jammer]

You're not hanging out a gay bars are you?

Lace, you might have to be the one to initiate a conversation somehow. Do you try making eye contact with any guys? Perhaps you might be more successful if you were not alone; do you have any friends that could hang out with you? I'm just throwing out some ideas here as I really have no clue as to way this is happening.

Some guys are intimidated by beautiful women. It's easier to assume you'd get rejected than to actually endure rejection, so they just don't try.

And we have a winner.


Seriously, guys today are terrified of both rejection AND of being accused of being aggressive to the point that many won't make the first move.

[Lace69]

You know what? I think I'm going to start some experiments and test these theories.

This is going to be fun.

[Lace69]

I will post the progress of trials here.

Pics, and include details of what I wore and did.

Awesome!
Do you contribute to the VW site? I'd love to see more of you in all your glory.

[Lace69]

Plenty to VW and RC.

Not sure where to find them. Same username

[Lace69]

Kiki is searching the archives for my past contri's.

[rockclimber]

What can we do about linking a full sized (800x800 pixels) image to the dispalyed propics? Propic changing is a lot of fun and increases the enjoyment of the boards....

Still would prefer the propic placement to be on the left where the eye catches it first....

Lace, I have to agree with some of the other comments. Some times guys can be intimidated by a beautiful woman (as you certainly are). They may be thinking "She could not possibly be single" or may feel that they are not good at starting conversation. I personally always thought that an attractive woman such as yourself has likely heard every line that exists (not that come-on lines are a good idea. They suck) and what do I have to offer that she has not already rejected a thousand times. Our ego's become our own obstacles when rejection is a strong possibility.
I have recently become single after years of marriage and find myself in your situation or I assume(somewhat - it must be tougher for a lady). I am a licensed massage therapist and have learned a few tricks that seem to work well with first time female clients that are not exactly sure they want to get a massage from a guy that they dont know anything about. It works equally well with male clients that are afraid that if another dude gives them a massage they will be gay at the end of the hour lol. If you can pick up on any little thing to start conversation and quickly get them talking about themselves it gets the ball rolling. Then you can build on it with personal experiences and feelings. People are willing to talk about themselves if given the opportunity. With ladies I try to get them to laugh about something. That seems to start to break down walls. This seems so basic but is very affective.
I'll give you two short examples and stop writing a book lol. Just before Christmas I entered a store along side a beautiful young lady with two children that were obviously wound tight for the holiday. As I walked beside her I said "I really miss the years when my daughter was that age. Christmas was so special then". By the time we reached the back of the store we were in this big conversation. In the other a BIG dude came in wanting a massage and was hesitant to get one from me since both of my female therapists were busy. On the way to my room I noticed he was wearing a camo shirt under his coat. I said "You a hunter"? Yes "Been out yet"? Conversation started with him talking about what his buddies had taken and what he had to get to do better.(deer season) 20 minutes in he says "Man that feels good!" Hooked client
This works just as well in any social setting. I find it much easier to talk with anyone these days. I hope you find something here that works for you. By the way, I commented just this morning on your Lace69 unmentionables forum entry where you were posting pics. I would love to have an extended conversation with you !!!!! You are stunning !!

[Lace69]

I loves good massage. I prefer a male.

[Lace69]

That sounded like I can't talk. I meant to say:

I love a good massage.

RockC and Missy: I have one to share that maybe will help people. I went to a conference and there was many speakers but one that stood out above the rest. She had worked with some of the famous people in DC. Anyway she asked us to get up and talk to three strangers. During all this she had given us tips. One if you can talk about the weather, about the convention you are at, about the speaker, ghee the room it is cold or hot. Things that you have in common. There was a person that could not do it, this person had a high ranking job, yet could not talk to people even with the advice. Anyway everyone else could do it, even us introverts/extroverts.

The ideas would be like this: Pink is my favorite color on a woman. Or a woman could say, "I love pink." Those panties are very sexy. There is so many things they could comment on regarding starting a talk. I like that pose, I like your curves. Want to see more. The list could go on and on, if people just think about it. They have something in common with the picture you post.

[rockclimber]

Howdy DD! I am totally lost to the above reference but thanks for the shout out!!

Reading it over I guess we are discussing meeting people. I am shy too outside my element, but if I were to respond to a woman saying hello it would be to ust about anything she said! LOL! Seriously, I like a smart girl who has an opinion and isn'tjumping at the bit to argue with me. Case in point, I had a long conversation with my favorite female today, it was intensely arousing.... we were discussing bathroom remodeling, seriously, just remodeling, colors, floor, the shower!! Sometimes its the dance of minds that matters....no drama just easy and familiar....

Lace, I love all your submissions, did you get the panty pic resized? If not I can redo one for you and post it here? I owe a few others too, darn it always too little time!

But I'm a dork so don't mind me!

[Lace69]

I did get it resized....thanks.

[DangerousDi]

RockC: Sorry that was ment to go to Massur. My mistake.

[masseur]

Hello DangerousDi ! Your so right . It takes so little to initiate a conversation. Once it has started, then it is as important to listen as it is to speak. Two topics I try to avoid with a client are religion and politics. If they want to go there I try to remain neutral. I have to bite my lip a lot. I guess the most challenging thing for me in a social setting is approaching a person to actually start the conversation. Thats something I could use some advice or suggestions with. In the massage room its very simple. You are going to be one-on-one with this person for the next hour. But like Lacy said, she has set in a bar for a long time and not approached at all. Personally if I were in that bar, I would want to talk with her. Its that part of getting out of my seat and going up to her without making her think she needs to reach for her mace that is so tough lol. Got to run for now. Have a 7 1/2 month prenatal massage to do. Plenty to talk about there !!

[DangerousDi]

Masseur: Those are two topics I wouldn't bring up either.

I think if people think about what they have in common, they can ask questions. Like example if you are massaging a person you could ask if this your first time, if no then you have lots of talk about.

Just like walking up in bar to a stranger, all you would have to say is isn't this bar a dive, or isn't this bar fancy. Or can you believe how few people are here, or how many are. Just thing syou have noticed, that both can talk about.
