Idiot in action

[Gary Dowler]

Ok, I’m the idiot. I am perhaps the most computer illiterate person on the planet, or at least in the top 10. With the demise of Tinypic, I cannot find an image hosting site that I can understand well enough to use to post pics on this site. It pains me to admit that, but it is simply the truth.

Please don’t try telling me that “all you have to do is resize your pictures to post them”. My iPhone doesn’t allow me the option.

I’d love to post some pictures of my now complete PT-26 project, but I simply cannot. What I’m wondering is if I could email or text some of them to someone here who could post them?   I’ve shared them on FB, but many here are not on FB.

Anyone feeling like giving me a hand?

Take the photo using your phone.

Send that photo to your email.

Place it in a folder on your PC.

Start a Thread in SH and "attempt" to place the photo in the Thread.

Try this for starters.

Hey Gary:

You can get onto Stunthanger and complain about being computer illiterate -- so you're not as computer illiterate as some.

There's an app in the Apple Store called "Image Resize" that looks like it may work for you (of course, it could be what you had and it no longer works).  At least -- it's in the store, and they make it look pretty simple to use.

If that doesn't work, I'm pretty sure my email is in my profile, and I can do this for you.

I down load my camera or phone to my computer and then use the program that came with it.  It did take me a while to figure that out.  And to think I retired from working with one of the biggest computers in the world.

Gary I use an Iphone to post pics on here frequently. I found a free App called Image Resizer. You'll find it in the App Store. It works quite well.

After over five years of using my trusty old IPhone 4s, it got crunched in a furniture accident.  I replaced it with IPhone 11.  Since getting it, anytime I have posted pictures hear, an option to resize popped up on the phone. Appears to be a "built in" feature?  Never tried it with the 4s so I don't know if it had anything similar?

Thank you Tim for directly addressing Gary's needs.  You beat me to it as I was going to offer the same help.

Many thanks to Mike Londke for walking me through the process of using my 1 phone to post I hope to try it out tonight.
