Where to re-size pictures to upload here

Post by hungry_cow » Mon Mar 13, 2017 3:41 am

Where and how do you re-size pictures to upload to show and tell or for sale section? It seems like I can only get them so tiny they can barely be seen or the file size is too big so I must not be doing something right.

I would use an image hosting service. Basically you create an account, upload a picture to your hosting service, download the picture at the size of your choice and copy the link of the download. Hit the "Img" button when creating a post on TT and paste the link between the "Img" brackets. I use Flickr, but there are other image hosting services such as photobucket that can all work great. When in doubt, preview the post to make sure it comes up how you want it to look. Hopefully this all made sense.

Should look something like this:

My close up pics work ok. Anything from greater than 5 feet is so small, it's hard to see after I resize the pic.

Use imgur.com

No need to create an account. Just click and drag photos onto the page, and then copy/paste the image link here, using the "Img" function above the text box.

Quite a number of apps you can use that are free just do a Google search.
