Trouble uploading photo

Post by Carriagehouse »

Does anyone know how to resize a photo from the iPad? I have been trying all day with various apps and none of them will let me size the photo small enough to upload it here. I no longer have a regular computer. Suggestions? Thanks!

Email it to Tex. He is also a computer expert.

Hi Leslie,

The problem with just resizing an image file (without also considering the resolution), is that in order to get the file size small enough to satisfy the system limitations on file size, if it's a high-resolution image (high definition) the physical dimensions can end up too small for proper display. The resolution should be set to 72 dots per inch, to avoid that problem.

If you will email the image file to me, I'll be happy to convert it into an avatar and upload it for you. You can send me an email by clicking on the "email" button at the bottom of this post.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
