Hi all, can someone let me know how to attach a photo to this site. Whenever I try, it comes up saying file is to big, and that's with only one picture

The max photo size limit is stated to be 1024 KB. I normally use the Windows Paint app to reduce the number of pixels to meet the specified limit.

Thank you for the info, but don't think I can do that from an iPad. I'll have to try to reduce the pixels somehow. Thanks again

One way of doing it is with an iPad app called 'Image Size' although I'm sure there are plenty of similar apps.

I’m all apple, and just get by.

What I do is: email myself the picture, that lowers the quality. Hey presto, low enough for a forum.

Once you have emailed it to yourself, how do you post it; thanks.

Save it and send. You lower the quality when it is sent originally. 

It’s a faff! Can see why social media as a platform has a huge draw.
