Like I offered, if you send me the file I can take a look and see what the issue is. I haven't seen a file I couldn't post yet (there may be a first! :)), but difficult to suggest a solution when there is no information on format and size. I don't "I" anything, so can't help with that, but a file is a file.
 
OK, that is/was a 2.72Mb file. That is over 5x the maximum file size you can post on the Barn. It is now a 150Kb file.

There are several ways to go about that, but I'm not an Apple guy. Think it is fairly simple on the "I" stuff, hopefully someone will chime in that is up on that. I use Windows10 on my desktop, but like to use Microsoft Office 2013, which allows me to run the old Photo Manager. If the function is not built into your phone or iPad, you just need to find a photo management app that includes changing file size. To check a file size, just right click on an image and you get a pop-up menu. At the very bottom is Properties. Left click Properties and it will give you the file information including the file size.

You can send any files to me you want to post while your figuring out the photo management stuff.
 
I don't think Tommy's problem is the regular size problem others have experienced. I seem to remember having it a couple of years ago and I had to reload some software or something like that. Unfortunately, I don't remember exactly what it was; perhaps someone else does.

That could be, but a file that size is not going to upload.
 
Ok, Desoto, I just emailed the 150Kb file back to you. See if it will post for you, that should let you know if there are any other issues going on.
 
I don't have posting issues, as I have Vista with MS Office Picture Manager. I can size any picture to post in 3 clicks with it.

I came in to this thread, at just the right time. As I have been trying to post pictures, in a thread Like Petehoovie does and they not turn out to be thumbnails.

Pete can you tell us how to post them full size?

My stupid factor is running about 100% here. At one time I posted allot of pics so I thought I post some pics of the Hydro engines and Baby Ruth. Everything went well until I hit upload. After that nothing happened, soooo, I might need allittle help,

You were probably on the right track! You wont see them until you preview or actually make the post. I think you just stopped to early...
 
I just checked by sending two of my engines pics in an e-mail to myself. I couldn't upload these pics previously. First pic was 472 kB, and second around 400kB. So now for some reason it works. I think maybe it is an issue with my iPad as pic in email showed .png. Permitted file size for jpegs is much larger than it is for.png files. If it is a .png file according to my e-mail, still don't know then how I was able to post here it it was a .png file being it is around 400 kB which is much larger than the 19.5 kB size permitted for .png. The thumbnail says it is a Joey, so that explains why I was able to post. So, somehow, my iPad is converting them to .png somewhere along the line.
Still need to know how to post bigger pics and more than one per email.

Ziggster,
Beautiful Flathead.
Have you looked at my thread on the Hamb ?
I plan on getting mine in that condition sometime soon.

Left click on your thumbnail...it becomes the large size (UNDERSTAND that the thumbnail you are working with MUST be posted ANYWHERE on the internet to create a URL). Now, right click on the enlarged picture. Left click on PROPERTIES at the bottom of the drop-down. HIGHLIGHT the complete URL (https//…………). RIGHT click on the HIGHLITED URL. Left click on copy. Now, left click on the yellow square with the mountains (
insertimage.gif
). A window will appear. With your cursor on the blank line, right click, left click on PASTE. Left click on OK in that URL window and your enlarged photo will now appear. It sounds complicated, but once you get used to it, it only takes about four or five seconds to post each pic. DD

Thanks. I think because I'm using my iPad, I don't see the features I would using a mouse. Next time, I'll trying logging on using my iMac.
