How to get pictures resized for this forum

Post by Barbara L. »

Please help me....
I can't get this forum to accept my resized pictures (even though I have done it in the past).
What is the best way to get them to work to be the correct format and size to use the attachment option available ?

Thanks!

Barbara,
Have you tried uploading your pictures into the gallery? Once they are there, below the picture I just copy the Image BBCode and paste it into my post. I make my pictures usually 600 x 800. I use google chrome so if you are using a different browser it might be different.
Hugs,
Nadia

Thanks, Susan and Nadia.
I will try both suggestions.
Does the gallery cost money? It used to, I think.

I resize mine by opening them in paint and clicking on resize. from there you can either reduce the number of pixels or reduce by a percentage. It works great.

I have always resized by photos with paint.net to 640 x 480 -- however, just yesterday when posting for Barbara, DollFan rejected that size. They have to be at least 1000 x 1000 according to the instructions. All the photos wound up to be 1333 x 1000 versus the 640 x 480. They uploaded under attachments perfectly then.
