Any of you know a good place to get a tongue mount bracket for #20 propane tank?

Most any online RV parts place will have them.
E trailer is one of them.

Internet searches are a very easy way to find answers...

Seems excessively high in price but...

Some times you can chase down what you want from these image searches....

Dale, you are right about the image searches in google. I use it all the time and have gotten some great finds from it.

YEP... I'm finding I do more image searches than "text" searches, if I find a image that depicts something close to what I am looking for, I chase item down by going to the websites image is hosted on...

Dale,

It is expensive...

I bought one to use on my new trailer project.
It is very well built, and quite heavy duty!
I didn't want a cheap stamped steel bracket that would sit on top of the tongue, so I chose this one and welded it to the bottom.
Keeps the tank lower and more protected, and looks better (to me).

For photos that are to big.....

There are several web sites that you can upload pictures to and then select size of picture to be resized to then you can download processed picture...

http://www.picresize.com/
http://www.resizeyourimage.com/
http://www.webresizer.com/

Other option may be get program Like IRFANVIEW where with about 4-5 mouse clicks you can do your resize and crop on your computer....

httP://www.irfanview.com

For adding pics to site there is this help....

viewtopic.php?p=911290#p911290

For best picture size usually 600x480 pixels is good for most forums and displayed really well on average computer screen....
