Start in the middle and work your way around in a X-cross pattern. The nuts only need to go on just past snug. If you put on to much tq, you can warm the cover.

You can either change the pic size on the camera or go into MS Picture Manager and resize them.

or set the size you want all your pics to be if you're using a site like photobucket to host them. They have preset sizes that work well for forums.
