How do I upload a photo onto the forum?

[jbale]

Please can somebody tell me how I can upload a photo onto the forum? I tried this with a standard photo from my computer (taken on an iPhone), and it said the file was too big. Help!

I use Photo bucket and copy and paste the image link. That saves people having to open another link and they can see the photo instantly in your thread.

If the file is to big to upload i find this the best way.

1) Find the photo you want to upload and save it to desktop

2) Right mouse click the photo and click edit(use basic paint)

3) Go to image at the top of paint and click on stretch?skew

4) In the box where its says horizontal 100% remove the 100% and put 50%

5) In the box where it says vertical 100% remove the 100% and put 50%

6) Now click ok

7) Now click top right of paint the x (it will ask do you want to save changes click yes)

8) Now it will upload :)

That site looks too complicated to me but I'm sure some people will understand it.

About 18 months ago my teenage daughter showed me how to upload a photo (taken from my camera) onto the forum. It's now second nature to me, even though I know nothing about technology, other than being able to touch-type and like handymaneastdulwich, I open up the photo in paint, but resize it to 10%. Then there are a few more steps (like naming the photo) but it works for me.
