Hi is there any links that you could direct me to on downsizing a photo as I keep getting image to large. I have only just worked out how to upload lol now hit this brick wall thanks for any help
 
Upload photos to large what? :)

Where are you uploading to? Flickr by any chance?
If so, I can talk you through the process.
 
at the moment mine are in dropbox which I have transferred to pc I don't have a flikr account would this be better to have
 
Flickr is the easiest way, but for posting photos to the gallery here the photo must be no longer than 1024px on the longest edge and also must be I believe under either 300 or 350kb but I'd need to check that figure
 
when trying to add to tp the message is files to large to upload do I need an editing program to adjust size thanks

Hi Robert
I think most people use Flickr. There's an option for uploading different size pics to the forum using the BB code- an automatic resizer.
I don't know about dropbox- as I don't use it. Flickr is free too.

edit: you can upload any size pics to Flickr and downsize them to suit forums by choosing the option you want.

You do know you have a free gallery right here on TP?

From this thread

Before you get started, please note :-
Images up loaded to your gallery must not exceed 1024px on the longest side, nor 300Kb
or you will get an error message.

If attaching a file direct from your PC / device, into a thread.
this must not exceed 1024px on the longest side or 200Kb
otherwise it will fail to up load.

Or a guide to using Flickr is HERE
