How to upload pictures?

[HeatherBrandt]

Hi there,



What is the best way to upload a picture for a classified ad? When posting the ad, under options it will only allow a picture of 64kb, and my picture is so microscopic that most viewers won't even notice it. The help section wants you to upload a picture in the media gallery. What are my options?





Thanks,

Hi Heather,



Depending on how large your source photo file is will determine how it's going to look once it has been resized. The best way to do this would be with photoshop software, but if you don't have that option, saving the file from a social site is the next best option. If you have the photos uploaded to something like Facebook or Flickr, you can then right click on the photos from your web browser, click "Save Picture As", save it to the desired folder and then upload it here to myREINspace. This will give you a photo with a size below 64kb.



Give that a shot and if you're still having issues, let us know and we'll do our best to make it work for you!

Hi,

When I don't have access to photo editing software, I use the following site to resize or convert images.
