Video of how to resize/add a pic to your post

Most forums have a limit as to how big a picture can be that you can add to your post. (We like pictures, it makes things easier to understand)
To add a picture is easy (See my signature) but often you can not use your picture because it is too big (To the computer, it is too big)
I use an easy to use website and that is totally free. The website is Picresize.com

It is also easier to watch someone-else do it, so now you really can watch someone-else (me) do it.
.
Disclaimer:

This should work what ever you have be that a pc or an ipad. Sorry, I do not have an ipad to test it with.
There are other resizing programmes out there, but this is totally free, and you do not need to download anything (other than your picture)
It may seem hard to use, but like anything, the more you use it, the easier it becomes.
If you think you can make a better video, then please do.

Above are my opinions Below is my signature.

Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.

:mrgreen: If gloom had a voice, it would be me.

With my I Pad all you do is click on add files, choose a photo, at the bottom of the window gives you size options I use medium , click done and then place in queue , job done . hmm unless you have I pad upside down and photo comes out upside down, make sure button is on right, I forget being a left handed person sometimes

I use MS Office picture manager. They stopped supplying it as standard but if you download MS sharepoint it's on there.

I simply don't trust companies with my photos. I was once told if anythings free then you are the product.

As I'm on Linux Mint, I use Gwenview for pictures that need edit; there is also another tab "open menu" which gives the print, copy etc.
