Fellas, how do you post pics here?
Made an attempt and the edit stalled so I quit
Cheers

Go to shrinkpictures.com.  You can do one at a time for free.  Shrink to 350-600 pixels, and download the shrunk picture to your desktop.

Get on this site, write your message,  Check it out in the Message box rather than using Preview and then go down to Attachments and choose the file you made of the picture.

When it shows up in the Attachment 1 box, hit Post Message.  As the French say, “Vi-Ola!”

The average phone camera has so many pixels you could project a picture on Half Dome and notice no graininess.  Way too much for these sites.  For some reason, I’ve never been able to use Preview and have the picture show up when I finally posted the message.

This is a sticky in the for sale section.

(You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

Selecting preview to see your message has never shown photos and it confuses everyone.   

If you have a Mac the preview app on your computer has a resize option under tools.   

If you have a Windows PC you have my condolences.

I haven’t lost all my marbles yet but there is definitely a hole in the bag somewhere.
