insert picture in to a form

I am trying to create a form which allows users to insert pictures. This I
have done but I would like some of the pictures within the form to be a
larger size. Any changes i make affect all pictures. Is there a way to
solve this problem. I have managed to bluff my way through this so far, but
with no training I have reached my limit. HELP!!!

What sort of a form needs pictures? If you need this type of free editing
then you have to consider whether a form is the best tool for the job. You
may do better collecting the (form) data in a userform and inserting it into
the document at the appropriate places - maybe with docvariable fields - For
the basics, see Word MVP FAQ - Userforms
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms.htm

for a more in depth explanation, see
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Create_and_employ_a_UserForm.htm

and see also http://www.gmayor.com/SelectFile.htm

or you could use placemarkers in the document - see

Forms are best employed as forms!

The form is being used for a conservation effort in identifying the
individual pelage characteristics in the Scottish wildcat. The form initially
relied on the use of drop down menus, but participating institutions have
requested the facility to include photographs. This I have done and it works
very well, but another way to help with identification is through the use of
x-ray which is why I need to have the facility to include a larger image (but
do not want to alter the size of the other photograrhs). Thanks for the
links, I will give it a try later today.
