hi,  I dont even know your name. Me is Ranjith (An English Teacher in Sri Lanka). Dont worry. You are not alone. We are with you. There are thousands of teachers registered in this site. This is a very useful site to specially teachers. What you got to do is, first you have to countribute your own worksheet. Then you too can download numerous worksheets. -

Hi Cat,
I �m also new in this site and I have uploaded some lessons that I made.
At first, it �s quite difficult, but then when i tried it, it �s really not as I thought it would be.
Thanks for all these nice people, especially the owner of this site.
It really helps me a lot.
Regards,

Imelda

I think Cat has some good points.  I suggest downloading what you can for now and resizing images later if you need to.  I had similar issues with this site and still do.  I am grateful for this resource, but everything can be improved, which is all that Cat was trying to say.  She brought up some good points that I think Victor should take into consideration and not brush off, like some users are.  Good luck Cat!  If you do post some worksheets Cat, let me know and I will download them to get you some points!

Welcome Cat.

I use PowerLITE to compress my graphics - and they look great without having to make them smaller.  Others here love to use Ifran.  You can also compress pictures in Word.
Try one of these - because to be honest - we have thousands and thousands of fantastic worksheets here - some more than 5 pages long - all in one upload.
So it can be done.
Check out some of the worksheets to get an idea of our work.
Look under Recent contributions on the left of this column!

good luck

I completely agree with you. I have up loaded a mere few of the worksheets I have made prior to discovering this site as they are all too big. I like to share my worksheets, at the moment I do have enough points not to worry about them being downloaded, but I do feel bad that I am sure i have downloaded more than uploaded.

I have tens of sheets I have tried to upload but they are too big, and there is no way I have time to redo them all just to make the graphics smaller!

I do think the size problem is something that needs to be addressed, to help teachers strapped for time who can`t resize all of their pictures!

Shadow,

Hello and welcome to the site. Please excuse the not-so-welcoming behaviour of some colleagues here... Your words are polite and very correct - and more importantly your complaint is a valid one.

Many of the new members understand and share your frustration - and Victor (the owner) has been considering the situation of new members and how to make it a bit easier for them on the site since as the site grows, the more difficult it is to produce something "original that is eye-catching."... although until then, I am afraid that you must do like the rest of  them here. - Upload, cross your fingers and have patience!! LOL 

The links Libertybelle has given you are to compress images so your work will be lighter. Another option is to copy your work once it �s finished into Paint, save it there and recopy it to Word as one image. This usually works fine if you aren �t using to many "heavy" images.

If you ever need any help or have any questions about the site, please feel free to message me. I´d be delighted to help you out all I can. Smile

Cheers,

Linda

Welcome to the best ESL site on the net Shadow.  Your complaint is valid and has been made by many others before you. The edvice given by Libertybell and Zora is the best. Some members here will be welcoming, some will be rude, some will be indifferent - just like everywhere else. If you really want to share try the suggestions given. Maybe you can even delete some of the very heavy grphics if they are not completely necessary.
If I can help you anyway, don �t hesitate to send a PM.  Once again, Welcome .
