posting photos

[Bighonda14_imp]

Can anyone help me post photos? I have a few jpgs from when my bike was recently picked up at the Fay Myers dealership in Colorado and thought others would enjoy seeing them. I am told they are too large.

Any advice on how to make them "smaller"? Anyone willing to have me email them the photos and load them on my behalf?

Thanks for the help!!

Most of us us a hosting service like Photobucket. Then they will resize automagically by the service.

I'm an Apple guy and use their photo app as a storage space for most of my photos. And I use dropbox.

Photobucket makes it so easy to post pics. I would open a free account there and move pics there I wish to post.

Bighonda, it costs Guth money for storage space so he has limited the size of pictures. You can either use Preview or Photos in OSX to save a copy of the photo in a reduced size and then upload it as an attachment. If you store your photos in iCloud, and you can get a link to the page that displays just the photo, you could use the insert image function on the compose post screen here to insert that link. That should display the photo, but I wouldn't be surprised if Apple made it hard to find the actual URL of the photo.

Otherwise, as popgun said, use a hosting service like Photobucket or postimage.org that will provide you with links to the photos and deal with the size problem for you. See this thread for more help or PM me. http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1913.
