I am using a Canon PowerShot SD 500. I have discovered that I can enlarge the pictures when I am viewing them by using the zoom. I just cant figure out how to save them like that before I upload them to my computer. The pics come out looking a lot better like this rather than trying to use a lot of zoom when taking the pic.

Does anyone know how to save them like this? Is it even possible? I have looked all through the manual and checked the website and I cant find anything.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Ok. Thanks man. Never heard of Picasa, but I will definately look it up. I was going to buy Photoshop until I found out it was 700 bucks. I really cant afford that right now.

I really appreciate the help. Thanks a lot. :hail:

e/ just dled Picasa 3. I think it might take me a while to figure it out but at least its a step in the rght dirction. Thanks again.

Heh... Yea Picasa is great especially because you can set it to automatically upload certain photos if you want others to see them. The only downside is that the Picasa links are somewhat unreliable.
