Upload pics
 

Peakey
Seems to be age old problem when trying to
upload pictures you not make it easier to do

It's simple. You can't upload large photos to oople so cut them down. Or just use one of the many many photo hosting sites

All I do is take the picture from my phone. Then import to photo folder, then crop the picture. With some pictures I crop as small as I can go, but still allowing the picture to show.

Works every time, hope that helps people that don't use a hosting site like myself........:thumbsup:

pictures
 

The issue is that our phones are now taking higher quality pictures so the resolution is higher, you need to edit the pictures before posting.

SIMPLES:thumbsup:

It’s not down to me to change the size of the pics you can upload to the site, it was set by Jimmy when the site was on smaller servers to save money which still stands really. I know it’s harder now photobucket are being greedy wankers but there’s loads of other hosting sites that you can use.

screenshot
 

if you take a pic on your phone of something your selling, immediately screen shot it and use the screen shot... probably quickest way to create a low res image for web use.

I just use a picture resizing app no problems ,
it's not a difficult task in exchange for free adds is it ?

Quite right, it's FREE, the least advertisers can do is obey by the rules, or else we could start charging a fee for each advert, your choice.

Certainly one way of killing of the site

There are some of us who don't do other social media because it's of no interest to us and I appreciate the effort the moderators put in on our behalf
The rules are there for everyone if you can't follow them don't be surprised if adverts are pulled because the poster can't be bothered to follow them. It's a time consuming task for the mods and shouldn't be necessary
May be this forum can do without that type of member?

not really, if you have problems with the rules that have been put in place, leave, it wont kill the site, other seem to be happy with it.

What are you talking about where am I not following the rules? I said that in answer to a bad idea about charging people to sell on the site. Please explain what your issue is with what I put in relation the the post I quoted

The photo rule was put to the members of the site, it was voted on and the outcome was respected and put into place :woot::lol:

I was looking at the painters the other week, PostImage looks comprehensive and easy to use even a website plugin, would something like this make life easier and save storage costs, I guess there must be others.

An easy way to resize an image is to email it to yourself. I do that then save the image and it can be posted on here without issue. At least that's how I do it anyway.

it's getting old.

I'm lost. Where have I said anything about not following rules???? What am I being called out on?

I guess with a whole 14 posts your not really what this thread is aimed and and clearly haven't read it all because my first post was telling people how I post pictures

This site is quiet compared to what it used to be so trying to charge people to post something Will mean even less people coming here.

it's getting old now..

Can I just point out to the 2 people who've quoted me that you have read my comment but not bothered to read the quote which is what I was replying to not peaky post. This is how forums work :confused:
