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.

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.
