Thumb nail picture

TOMGREEN413 · Post by **TOMGREEN413** » Thu Aug 10, 2023 4:50 pm

Any help to assist me would be greatly appreciated. Posting pictures on forum no worries but I'm told my picture for the thumb nail is not compatible? I don't deal with technical stuff very well and haven't a clue that yhis means?
Thanks Tom

From memory the thumbnails have to be a specific size and ratio so you'll need to edit the pic down accordingly first.

Thanks, I've no idea how to edit down a photo but I'll investigate and see what I can do.
Many thanks

I’ve had the same problem Tom that’s why I gave up

I seem to remember finding a photo shrinking app on the Internet.
Basically it was select the photo and select pixels / size and save the result

I will try and have a Look on the mac tomorrow

There's a 7-day free trial...but I'd only use it if you can make use of it daily, and/or get an employer/client to fund it.

Or if on a mac
Select Photo > Edit using Preview> Tools > then size the image.

Ive just done this on the iMac and it works a treat

I'm happy to help any member needing images resized
