Data to back up galaxy hunting

Found my first telescope galaxy the other night. NGC 7314 in Pisces Austrinus.

When I researched the galaxy online I did find lots of interesting info but I couldn't manage to find the distance or dimensons. I checked NED, NGC online, NGC-IC project, SEDS, and many sites through my search engine.

Can anyone tell me this info or even better, a site that does? I suppose calculating distance from redshift velocity is not simple?

PS You could just about call the beginners forum the jps forum. I hope you don't mind.
