Tutorial for uploading photos and video

Well spotted A&J. Pink crocs with office socks: it's got to be David!

trying Steves app....

the image is resized and loaded, but the reply just hangs in limbo doing nothing...?

so, that seemed to work, albeit not as large as Chas' picture

now, i can load photos, will i be able to update my avatar?

i think it cant be done from an ipad...

spot the difference...

ah, Brue, i though i might get some interesting guesses before revealing the answer. 

ill give some clues but this should give it away....

this is a real photo, taken by me last wednesday, in Wiltshire, the only known current habitat for this species.

formerly extinct in the uk, but currently around 40 birds in one location. gradually numbers are coming back.

the largest flighted bird in the uk.

now its easy peasy......

Ah, I know now! We were talking about them when we drove over Salisbury Plain recently, wondered if the introduction had worked...looks like it has. 

I've never changed my avatar and was lucky that it wasn't lost when site was upgraded 😉. I seems to always see mine with roughly equal Gray all around it on my android phone, kindle Fire and laptop windows 10 and Firefox.  With those of you that had changed your avatars such as Brue and N1805 I see a full width image reaching to the bottom but a grey block above. 

NH1805. I stopped using Edge, it didn't seem to work well generally. I use Chrome and can change the avatar easily via my own laptop photo storage reducing to 500 each time before I start the process. On my phone the photos people post on here have a much better quality, I can zoom in on them easily. But if I post photos via my phone, not so good. 

Strange & not sure why.   Changed Avatar picture to a row of cottages after adding Gnome photo in previous post but it doesn’t show here. Just now I closed  Chrome & logged in 1st via  Firefox & then Edge Both of these show the Avatar row of cottages.  Now testing adding photo to post

It's a mystery 😉.  But full credit to you for persisting.

Really if you have to have a tutorial to show you how to post photos maybe it's too complex?? A bit like having a video to explain the rebrand 😉😉😉. What should be clear and simple - ain't 😔. 

I've not seen a tutorial on fb or the BBC when hey ask for your photos 😉

Has changed OK when just checking back now.

"With a pc and the right browser big pics are possible"

Chas, I think I missed your point?

ET posted an image that when clicked displays at about 5 and a half inches by 4.

Your images show at 5 and a half inches by 4......ie the same size on my particular PC?

Obviously different screen sizes and set ups will show at different sizes.

PS. My attitude to the CC is that the image posting system and the resulting image is simply an insult to all members.  

The quality of the thumbnails when enlarged by right clicking is better than larger photos. I much prefer thumbnails. It is fairly easy to edit/resize to 500 (once you have a go and pick a reasonable photo) and the results on here, when enlarged as explained, look better than larger photos. IMHO  Famous Shetland bus stop photo. 

You can right click to enlarge as said or you could right click and "open image in a new tab" and then use zoom. Much depends on the original image how much detail you'll see. This is using a laptop. If I use my Android phone I can easily enlarge the images just by touching the screen.

I've got quite an old laptop, using the latest windows and chrome, it works on my system but maybe some have different set ups?

Repeating photo (done on micro) from another thread to see if the zoom improves the detail.
