Hi
I am new to this forum and trying to post a picture but i keep getting this message

The file you attached is too large. The maximum size for that type of file is 1024 kilobytes.

How do you get the pictures to the correct size?

Welcome. I find this useful, Use, LARGE, from right click selection. Ed.

Windows Paint does quite a good job.

But you must remember that clicking on just "Save" in Paint will over-write the file, so your full-size image would be lost - use "Save As" and change the file name.

Alternatively, I think the best way is to make a new folder for Shuttertalk images, then make a copy of the file you want to upload in that new folder, and resize that copy. Your full-size image will then be safe still in its original folder.

Definitely! Never work in a document that you're not prepared to lose Smile
