How To Post a Pic on this Site

[towny44]

I was going to post Ceuta but the photo was too big, and I can't be doing with all this faffing around resizing. Now there's a good lock-down job for David, install an auto resizing facility so we computer nerds turds don't have to.

.... and he could also clarify if using pics from the Net is allowed due to potential copyright issues

install an auto resizing facility

You can upload as large a photo as you want - if you are prepared to pay the extra storage costs
Alternatively try this https://resizeimage.net/ two clicks and you pic is resized

.... and he could also clarify if using pics from the Net is allowed due to potential copyright issues

That all depends on what copyright the pic has. Should be no problem if it is accredited

I found some pics on a CD for San Remo and / or Ravenna ... resized and saved ok but cannot get them onto here

Assuming you're using a PC rather than an ipad or tablet you go into Full editor and then you can attach photos

Maybe you can ...

I expected it to work using IMG but that seems to require a URL origin, the FAQs state ....

" You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) " ?

ps .... I am indeed using a PC

Add the photo as an attachment

Add the photo as an attachment

Final attempt then I will just read the Topic

The original photo was on a CD, it was copied to my brand new and sparkling ' Allatc ' folder.

Right clicked and selected ' Edit ' .... uses Paint with a re-size option ( much easier way of doing it I thought ).

Selected Send to an e-mail recipient but although it works the size cannot be lower than 640 x 480 - ish.

[Mervyn and Trish]

I've found if I resize to.400 max dimension that works

[Manoverboard]

Right ...

Accepting that I am the dimboist dimbo on the planet ... was I doing the correct thing in #8 and if not why not ?

Why are you sending it to an email recipient.

When posting at the bottom it says "Attachments", click on this, then "Add files", select the file that you want, click "Place inline then "Submit" - like so

I use a free picture resizer to reduce the image to 400x400 and save it (usually to Desktop so I know where it is).
Then I go to Full Editor & Preview.............Attachments...........Add files and so on just as David describes.

I'm learning something new, I've never been able to attach photos

If it's not straight forward(for me) I give up ha ha

Looking forward to your first photo. It's like riding a bike. Once you can do it you wonder why you never did it before.
I wonder who will be first - you or Mob?

I tried to do so because of the word ' attachment ', I simply hadn't noticed the tab ' attachment ' on this site.

Somebody should have pointed it out before, it's not my fault

Listen smart a*se it was your idea to resize it to 100 x 100, if I amend it to 640 x 480 or whatever you'll be bumbling on about storage or some such.

ps ... I will therefore re-size as instructed and try again

[Stephen]

Me thinks the site might be looking for a replacement mod

Quite possibly ... but you needn't apply

Where did I say that - all I said was resize it but not down to postage stamp size
