Hi, I'm having problems with my photo's.Although my camera is set to the correct size, my photo's are coming up HUGE, never used to be a problem. On the other hand, when I come to write a post the print size in the box is miniscule, so small that typing is a pain...how can I increse the size of draft ? Increasing font size does not help, only makes posted font bigger, hope spelling ok, cant see.... Brian

Can't help with your photos (note: no apostrophe) but they will be the size in pixels that you have you camera set to. You really don't want (in my opinion) a photo more than 600 pixels wide on an internet forum. If you check what size your photos are, that might explain why they appear to be 'huge'.

I agree with you that the text is very small when posting a message. I'm sure it didn't used to be like this, although it has been like this for quite a while now.

The easiest fix if you're using Internet Explorer as your browser is to look at the lower right hand side of the window; you will see a little magnifying glass with a + in it and 100% next to that. If you click on that and set it to (say) 150%, you will have larger text to look at.

But it means bringing it back down to 100% after you've posted.  Cheesy

Camera set to 640X480 (which it always has been) I don't think it goes any smaller. Embarrassed

that size is more than ok... but are you saving them as "jpegs" if you save them as bitmap pics.. they will be hugh. Undecided

640 pixels wide will be perfect.

Upload one Brian and we can have a look and find out what the problem is.

Another hugh pic below for Roly:

Hi, Got it sorted now, the original photo I took on my mobile phone, jpeg, but not the right size, too big when posted.. then took same photos with camera, jpeg 640x480 and loaded to computer, fine, then like a tw*t tried to upload the mobile photos AGAIN, took a bit of time to realise I was playing with the wrong file. My excuse is that I had had a hard day, wife thinks I'm going (am) senile, tough to prove otherwise Cry :' Undecided  Still don't know how to post multi photos in same post..any thoughts...easy instructions only  Thanks for your help  Brian

Using your image codes (but using square brackets): (img) then close with (/img)

That enough hugh pictures for one day!
