Having trouble posting pictures.

[KatyaB]

Whenever I try to post a picture, it says it failed. Has anyone else had this trouble before? I've posted some pictures in the past but lately EVERY SINGLE ONE FAILS! Please help. It would really help my posts if I had pictures...

I had the same problem. You have to manually resize the picture to 800 pixels. The web-site says 600 pixels but when I reduce mine to 800 they will download. Go to the picture on your computer. Right click and pick "edit". When the edit screen comes up click on "resize". When the resize screen comes up click the box next to "pixels" and then reduce the first pixels number to 800. Don't edit the second pixel number. It does that automatically. Then save the changes and the picture download OK. I'm using Windows 7. It's probably similar under other operating systems.

Thank you so much! I am also using Windows 7. Maybe that's what it is...

I use w7 also, if you follow the instructions in the link I posted, you'll do fine...it's really quite simple :Tup

The MOST important passrt is resizing prior to trying your upload

Let me know if you need any further help

I downloaded that program but I am confused. When I click on the photo that I want to resize, there is no option for resize.... And what does step 2 mean?

Nevermind!! I figured it out. It is so easy now to resize images and works great! Thanks so much!
