Resize means two different things! There is resizing the file size of a photo and there's resizing how big something looks on the forum page :-)

If your photo is bigger than 1mb file size it may fail to upload - so that needs "resizing" before uploading. The easiest way to do that is on a computer in Windows paint - very quick and easy. But there are also apps that resize photos. If anyone knows of the best easiest app, please post here :)
 
One tip that works with iphones :-) If you email the photo to yourself, it asks you what size image you want. Choose medium. The photo is then in your email at a reduced file size and can be saved from there so it's resized and ready to upload.
 
And so the limited amount of my tech know how has just increased!
Thanks!
 
I am looking into this anyway - I might be able to change the max upload size to make it easier for everyone :-) With the forum software resizing images automatically - bear with me!
