Default Posting wiring diagrams

I've wanted to post pics of wiring diagrams (A4). Having scanned them they come out on bmp file format. Size is 2046 x 3414. When I resize them to 300 x 500 to fit within the 60kb requirement (I think thats where I got to) the images are too small to be read.
What am I doing wrong? Or should I be posting them some other way?


P.S. I tried converting to jpeg with same result.

I can change the image size requirements, but to what end? There is no resolution restriction on *.jpeg files, only a file size limitation. How large is your filesize? Can you save space by making it black and white?

Hi Kyle.

The files are around 900kb. In JPEG fomat half that.

With all the interest in the tail lights with the orange turn signals, the 4th (bottom) one is for the rear fogs. I'm not sure what the US guy's thinking is with this lamp so I figured someone may be interested in seeing the wiring for it. No big deal.

The file is in b&w. It was scanned from A4 size, if that made any difference.

I have removed any resolution restrictions on posting jpg/jpeg/jpe files and pushed the limit to 500k. Give it a whirl and see how it looks.

Thanks Kyle. I know being RHD & with rear fogs may not be relevant to US trucks, but for anyone interested well...

Just curious - How come US trucks don't have rear fogs? Surely fog & mist is also an issue in your neck of the woods!

Sorry, diverting from purpose of thread.

Your thread, you can discuss whatever you like! LOL

Maybe we just do not get the fog like you guys get over there..? LOL

Many US trucks (at least, as far as Blazers are concerned) don't even have front fogs..

I have been seeing them on more and more vehicles lately though
