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 !!

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

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
