Photo's


Do you need to reduce the size of photos (memory) befor posting on the forum?

if you do, does anybody know an easy way to do it on an Ipad.

thanks

Download the app called Photo Resize&Rotate from the App store. You can reset by size or percentage. I think the app is free or very cheap 0.99c.

I know for normal laptops you do have to downsize. I right click on the photo and go to paint. Then reduce to 30%. Works for me.

I know nothing about Ipads, so can't help you with that.

 I do the same as HW, also 30% resize on Windows Paint, also use brushes to erase number plates on photo's for security purposes if needed, then save both settings....Works for me too and is free !!

I use Light Image Resizer, from Obviousidea, a free download & you can choose the size you wish just by typing in the size you wish. 

I find that a 600x400 is good, very quick, can nominate where you wish the copy to go.

 Mine is off a desktop, so not sure about Ipad, but on that if you have downloaded pics and nominated my pics as the destination they will go full size (eg; 2mb or similar).  I believe if you want to print your pictures off full size sometime, it is best to go the My Pictures and right click on the photo, choose copy, the past a copy alongide the original (will show copy), then use the copy to downsize, leaving the original one unaffected for printing at any time.

I just use the free program "Prish".  Once installed, I just R click on the photo, choose the size & it goes off & sets up a new folder 'resized' and puts a resized copy in it.

Must have a go at the MS Paint option too.

That's the one I use too Cupie, when I remember to use it.  Nice and simple.  Don't like having to fiddle around too much.  This is so easy.

Cheers,

Sheba.

 I double click to open,  resize then' save as 'a different name will work also - leaves the original in tact.
