    Default Picture sizing

    I've been trying to send a picture of my engine with one of my thread responses but when I try to upload it the response comes back and says that its too big. You're upload instructions say that your bulletin will automatically resize. What am I doing wrong? I'm using an Apple laptop.

    Don't think the auto-resizing is working, I resized in Photo-Shop, less than 700X1400 and 940 Kbites (roughly).

    At the moment we are still struggling with some software issues. Photos are one of the major glitches in this. Hoping that we can get things sorted soon...

    I'm using a MAC desktop. I put the photo on my desktop, Tools, Resize, under 75k or whatever, go to select file, choose my desktop copy, upload, done.
    It worked for my firewall post.

    Excuse my ignorance but I'm a bit of a computer dinosaur: Putting the photo on my Mac desktop is easy but where to I look for the "Tools" you describe? I assume that once I get to the "Tools" menu that the "Resize" will be a sub menu item under it, correct?

    Sorry, I talk fast.
    With the picture you just placed on the desktop, go to tools.
    A dropdown menu shows up with "adjust size." as an option.
    PM me if you have trouble.
