How to upload photos?

Post by Twobit »

Hi, guys! I'm brand new here and have a question about the values of a few blades I have but the forum says the file is too large. Do I need to take individual pictures of each blade to make the file size smaller? The pic of all three is only 1.73mb.

I usually use my phone to upload pics here .

Type the contents of your topic and when completed go to" Add files "at the bottom of your post and press it .It will give you a choice of downloads or images you have taken .Select the pics and then press open ...they will appear under your topic.

Only downside is they have to be about 500kb in size ,If they are not it will say" file too large" ,so you may have to crop them on your phone down to this size to post ,i
ts a pain in the arse sometimes but it works if you can do it .

Just another way aswell as those mentioned above by the others if you use your phone more than the computer .,I can never get on mine as my wife and daughter hog them.

Hope it helps a bit .and welcome .

Glad it worked Twobit :)
It is anything under 1mb that will be accepted ,most of mine end up around 500kb when cropped.
