Photo's are important! (info on loading pictures)

[frogpatch]

I tried to upload 2 pictures from my file that were cell phone pics. A message came up that said they were too large. That are not anywhere near the max of 4000. I went back and tried to load only one and a message said I posted that already. I looked and it was not posted. This sort of thing and also a long wait while pictures are loading happens all the time to me. Why? I load pictures all the time on other sites without a problem.

Had a similar problem with images the other day.

I try to load simple file photos taken with my phone and it says they are too large. I remove one and try again and I am told I already posted. I go and look and I am not posted. Why do I always have so much trouble. Now I will have to rewrite the post and gamble that I can do two pictures. If not I will will forget about the post until tomorrow.

Frogpatch, change the "settings" on your I-phone, .... either the "size" of the picture you are taking .... or the size of the picture you are transmitting.

A friend was sending me pictures that were like 36" by 24" (inches) and up to 2 megabytes in size.

I don't own an I-phone so I can't tell you how to do it.

As a newbie here who uploads pictures often, I was stymied for a bit but figured out pretty quickly I needed to convert my picture sizes. Taking a pic right from a camera or cell generally creates larger files than what can be posted here. Resizing files may be all you need to do if pictures aren't attaching. I know my parents would not know to do this...

Is there a way to use photos on my ipad? They don’t seem to want to transfer over.

Hi!  Just not seeing this question.  Are you asking if you can put pictures on the forum from an IPad?

[Tom9]

Hi, photos can be posted from an iPad, but check your internet speed. But to reduce the size of the photo, you can use the editor  This will help speed up the download speed.

Great advice on posting pictures! Clear and in-focus images really do make a difference when seeking help or feedback.
