Posting photos

Do you have a desktop or laptop computer? If so, then you will be able to do it. You can use many image editing programs to resize your photographs. The way I do it is described below. If you don't have an image editing program, you can download the freeware GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP), which is available for Linux (which I use), Mac OS X, or Windows.

Copy the picture files over to the computer.
Open the picture in the GIMP.
Select Image/Scale Image
Set it to resize the larger of Width or Height to 640 and hit tab. It will fill in the other box with the appropriate number.
Select the Scale button.
Save your image with a descriptive name so you can find it. It will be in the GIMP file format.
Select Export
Choose either JPEG or PNG file format. Either will work. I prefer PNG. The defaults will be fine for saving.
Your image is now resized and in a format that you can upload.

I hope this is clear enough and helps.

I have been a member of several forums in the past and have never had any problems posting pics before but for some reason I can't get photos to upload to save my life.  I'm using an IPad. Is there anyone els using an iPad that can give me some advise?  

I can't remember if an Android phone will do it as well, but if I email photos to myself using my iphone it asks me what size I'd like to send.  I just pick the right size, hit send, and save it in my photos again and the file size is within the threshold.

When I try to upload from my phone I get a message that I have already uploaded this photo.
