If I’m using the laptop, then I reduce in paint like CC says.

I cheat with my phone - I re-save photos I’ve posted in FB, as they are then small enough

When you go to paint the resize box the horizontal and vertical has 100 in it (at least mine does) so i reduce just the horizontal to 20/30/40 dependent on what looks the right size. Save. Then open.

1 clicks attachements
2 click add files
3 find photo you want to upload highlite it right click
4 click edit
5 click resize and zero whats in the top box
6 put in say 20 or 30 (you can go back until the size you want is acceptable)
7 click ok
8 X box will come up on top right click it
9 box will come up click save
10 click open
11 click place inline
12 submit.

If this works a miracle may have happened. It works for me. My biggest issue is finding the photo.
I can get to number 2 but nothing else comes up on my screen.... It's an Applemac........ I managed to upload a couple last time and my camera Is still on the same settings so it's more than a tad confusing for this particular retarded Technophobe....... It's not like my pics are that interesting anyway !!!!!

:D :D :D :D Feel for you.
Been there done that.............it's bonkers innit.
What get's me is these effing geeks are supposed to be smart eh, if they were so smart they would make it easy to do stuff like this..............but then again if they did they couldn't command a massive salary so they keep it difficult.

My son runs this site on one of his machines. I’ll ask if it is possible to increase the picture size.

But, I suspect he will say no, as it will fill up too quickly (he runs several forums)

Full english in the morning after a nice little stroll around with the dog.
Here is was almost 90% relative humidity, where is uncomfortable no matter the temperature (unless one is a maize plant).
