Post by: Carl Galvin on March 30, 2018, 02:00:34 pm

Hello members,

I am new to Primitive Archer, and a attempting to post a bow photo of my first bow build attempt, but I am having trouble uploading the JPG to this site.  Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance for your input!

You can use an image hosting site.  Imgur is fairly easy to use.  If you are going to upload the image file to this site I think it has to be a pretty small file.

640x 480 works. I have an old camera set to take pictures of that size. Then there is no problem.

I found a nice little app for windows 10   called an image resizer (because the new photo editing software with windows 10 does not include this feature.)  If you do a google search for "image resizer" you will find one with at bricelam.net that will install on your computer.  Then when you right-click an image, it gives you the option to resize your images with a little dialog box.  super simple.

@Jeff - it worked like a charm. I wish I had known about this two years ago!

I recommend using Imgur as well. Look up in the Pinned threads at the top and check out my photo tutorial. That should help. PM if you're having trouble with it.

Use picture resizer, it is super simple and all you need is to get below I think 250 on the size. Paulsemp got me using it . Then you use the attachment box  and there ya go
