At the end of my tether
I have difficulty with this.... I generally use an IPad on the board running IOS and Safari, although I will turn to the Chrome Book for this function if it works better.
I cannot find the URL of online images . So I can download pics to post up from my photos.
I would like to join in the “ Old Brighton Postcards” thread , but the only way I know to get an image from Google street view is to take a screenshot. When I attempt to post this, I get the message that this too big to load...
How do you all do it?
Thanks for any assistance. I am an old technophobe.

I've upped the image size three times in the last week - it now stands at 7,000kb (just under 7MB).

I've just upped it again to 10,000kb.

I really don't want to make it any higher than that, as images that size are just too unwieldy for slower connections and there are plenty of free. easy re-sizers which will shrink image file sizes down significantly with little/no loss of quality.

Anyone using Windows can use 'Paint' which is already installed.

Very simple, click on the thingy above 'image' then reduce the pixels to about 800 width. Job's a fish.
