Now really I don't know a lot about these Apple/PC things - but this webresizer photo is simple and it stops Russ moaning !! and its FREE
Its a bit Old School way of showing how simple it is - but Its the only way I know -
First a few simple rules - always down load the resized photo to your system - as Webresizer only keep them for 24 hours UNLESS you start getting involved with joining there club and that's were it can get complicated - SO DON'T GO DOWN THAT PATH - do not click on the GREEN START BUTTON - only use the ORANGE RESIZE PHOTOS HERE BUTTON
It only works with JEPEG Photos ( although they do have something to convert Raw and other types its new on there system but I stick to Jpeg)
A mistake I made when changing my Camera was it was set to a fine setting this being 3 times the amount of pixels that was on my old camera and it was far to many for the webresizer to deal with - it does explain this "file to big" but of course I did not read it and it took hours for me to sort !!
So here goes Hope you understand it and its is a bit arcaic (if that's how you spell it ) they way i have done it

Photos to follow - just got to resize them !!
Open Webresizer On my APPLE it shows Not Secure - on the my I pad it shows as Secure On a PC it shows as secure - A subject that has been talked about before - but no money is changing hands and no bank details are shown - The Wizz kids say the worst that can happen is some one will steal your photos Mine have appeared on "Google images of" and a few of the photo sites Pinterest for one - but life to short to worry about things like that
step 2 click on THE ORANGE BOX RESIZE PHOTOS HERE
STEP 2 click on UPLOAD AN IMAGE
step 4
click on UPLOAD IMAGE
1 when your images come up - CLICK ON NEW SIZE - I normally go for about 600 for this forum
2 Then go to - IMAGE QUALITY 90 is about the most for this forum
3 Then click on - APPLY CHANGES
Your new size will show up under NEW SIZE (would you believe )
last step - if happy with your new size anything between 40 and 60 normally works for this forum But you can try different sizes to get better quality - but I find the quality OK even if they are blown up /enlarged
last but important CLICK ON THE"DOWNLOAD THIS IMAGE" slot - THE FINISHED PHOTO GOES ONTO YOUR SYSTEM - THIS IS THE ONE YOU WILL USE FOR THE FORUM - and it keeps Russ off your back !!
Barney
Its best to duplicate your original photo "just in case it all goes wrong " but normally it keeps your original photo in one piece !!
I know what the Wizz kids will say but I don't really care !! --- do they realise that a lot of people don't understand Browsers /jpegs /websites and on we go but it keeps the "old gricers" off the streets and its understandable "GOOD OLD SCHOOL STUFF"
and remember"NEVER LET SOME-ONE WHO HAS DONE NOTHING TELL YOU HOW TO DO ANYTHING "
Thank you very much, Barney. -- Russ
what a relieve it would be if it works. will try tomorrow as is in.... 9 hours for 8 am
Why does it not work
Barney
test shot using a desk top image
well that appears to work so I think I can show it better using screen shots downsized by webresizer.com

issue 2 of how to use WEBRESIZER
This is the photo we are going to downsize and send to the forum from my resized Down Load
Barney
The Photo is in my photos at the moment
Before I start I would normally make a copy and do a bit of cropping and adjustments to exposure and contrast - Thats if it is required
First step open www.webresizer.com
this screen should appear
Click on the ORANGE BAR - RESIZE PHOTOS HERE - DO NOT CLICK ON ANYTHING ELSE JUST THE ORANGE BAR
then click on UPLOAD AN IMAGE this will take you to your photos - choose which on you want and the number of the photo will appear
TEA BREAK BACK IN A BIT
Barney
Then click - UPLOAD IMAGE This the one by upload AN image
Your photo should Appear - the one one on the left is the downsized version Normally to small
So next step is to up the size to something that the forum can handle !!
click on NEW SIZE i normally set it at around the 600 mark - then click on IMAGE QUALITY- set this at 90
Next click on APPLY CHANGES Thats the blue bit above New size
this will take you to the New down load size - in this case 77.66kb
if happy with this size click on DOWNLOAD THIS IMAGE its the one in blue above apple changes
This will then show your download version THIS IS THE ONE YOU POST TO THE FORUM
So its just a few steps
1: Click on RESIZE YOUR PHOTOS HERE ( the orange bar)
2: click on UPLOAD AN IMAGE
3: click on UPLOAD IMAGE
4: adJust size : select NEW SIZE then select IMAGE QUALITY
5: if happy with your new size DOWNLOAD THIS IMAGE - this is the one you send to the forum when you have selected Additional options ATTACH/choose file
then just click POST do not click preview unless you want a bigger headache !!
Always do one / post - photo at a time otherswise you will give Russ a headache
And if it helps print the instructions of first it makes it easy
I hope it helps
so have a nice day
Barney
Thank you, Barney.
Whatever method you use, and I've used three or four, after you've done a couple of resizes it only takes about half a minute per image.
