No button to upload to my albums.

Is there no answer to this ?

You would think it would be something the page admins would want to fix.

I will enlist some help next week and look into it. In the meantime you will get 50% off of all fees you have paid to be here.

I would think that this issue is SO EGREGIOUS that we should all get 50% off of our fees (just sayin)

I know. I was considering that but I already spent the money. Did yawl see that last new monthly pickup?

On a more serious note, our Admin Chris Browne, did a lot of work on the system last night. Things might not be perfect yet but should be getting better. There were quite a few size increases in picture capabilities last night. Whomever is having issues might let us know how they are doing now...And a huge thanks to Chris!

In regards to uploading a picture for a post. I found the following steps works best for me:

- Make sure your picture is around 200K in size. I use the following tool to optimize my picture file, https://imagecompressor.com (easy to use).

- JPG format is desired if you want the biggest picture for posting, see example below.

Anyhow, this method works for me.

Before I upload any photos for here from my PC I must resize my photo 25 to 50 percent using the PAINT feature showing that option so no problem uploading for me after reducing the size from 100 to say 25 percent--( not required if uploading photos to eBay)

Basically, I do this as well. I scan an image as a jpeg, open with Photos, and trim away any empty space, so that only the card (or whatever I am scanning) remains. I save that and then open again with Paint. In Paint, I resize to somewhere between 25% and 50% depending on the size of the image.

I also like to use Preview Post to see if the image looks right for the item involved. Sometimes it takes a few tries to get the right size.

I’m probably an idiot but thank you for this! I can finally post pictures again after nothing for the last 5-6 years.

I hadn't been having any problems with uploading pictures, but something is now different because pictures I uploaded the past few days are now showing up much larger on my post than they did before. Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

These are all pictures I took with my phone then saved onto my PC and uploaded to a post using the Manage Attachments button.

not really a problem but I just uploaded some pics and they appeared about twice the size as normal.
