Trouble uploading pictures

[Straight Arrow]

Hi Guys,

How does one go about adding a photo to his post? I'm having trouble.

There are apparently several ways, the one that currently happens to be working best for me is this. I downloaded Postimage to my PC. When I take a photo with my smart phone camera I email it to myself where I crop and resize, etc., and save it to a file on the PC. When I open Postimage, it allows me to browse for the photo I want to post on the website, and to select the options for posting. Postimage copies that photo and in the chosen format. Then I go to my posting, and on SMF I select "Img" from the toolbar and paste the photo in the appropriate location. That's when I click preview, and if I like the results, then I click submit and it's done. I make sure that I crop the photos I save to the PC to no more than 800 pixels on the longest side, and the photos turn out great. That's just my chosen way of doing it. I'm sure there are dozens of other methods, and I don't discourage anyone from doing things in the method that works best for them. Good luck!

Chris, what settings do you use for image resizing? I constantly struggle with getting the size right. Case in point my recent post of my newly acquired Rolls razor.
