| A brief tutorial: resizing thumbnails (need content, please weig | |
| h in!) | |
| By: Queenie Date: August 11, 2022, 12:18 pm | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| I have noticed that with some attached photos, when you click on | |
| the thumbnail you get a reasonably sized picture, and with | |
| others, it's ginormous and I can't seem to scroll over to the | |
| right to see the actual picture. | |
| My request is that some tech person will post instructions on | |
| how to resize the attachment so that it won't fill my entire | |
| screen plus five more, and if it does, how I can still figure | |
| out a way to see it. Bonus points awarded if this can all be | |
| done on the mobile site as well. | |
| Help? | |

| Non-tech here, but same thing drives me nuts. | |
| When I'm on my laptop & want to view someone's image, I | |
| right-click on the image and open it in another tab. Works like | |
| a charm every time. | |
| (Not sure re mobile site, sorry) | |

| My solution requires a photo editor, sorry! I'll nose around and | |
| see if there's a simpler way to do it, though. | |
| That is one excellent question, btw. | |

| The low-tech solution is to take the image at a lower resolution | |
| to start with, but that doesn't help if you want to use the | |
| photo for something else, or if you need to take the picture | |
| quickly, without fiddling around with the settings. | |

| My Google Fu produces two apps: | |
| 1) Reduce Photo Size and 2) Photo & Picture Resizer, both free | |
| but with "minimally invasive ads." | |
| I don't see any other way to do this on the phone with the | |
| installed Gallery app. | |

| On my photo editing software, this is what the screen looks like | |
| and you can see the choices I make to get a photo that's | |
| reasonably sized on the screen: | |
| I hope some of this helps. | |

| When you share a photo from an apple device it asks what | |
| resolution to send. For here, I normally choose medium. | |

| Here's my real truth: I have Photoshop, so if I need to resize | |
| something, I have a cannon to swat a fly. | |
| I will investigate non-cannon methods and see what I can do to | |
| help. | |

| My solution is to stop posting photos. Just me and my phone here | |
| in the mountains. | |

| For my Samsung phone, it works as follows: | |
| 1. Select the image in the basic Gallery app [ETA: which you may | |
| need to download] | |
| 2. Click the edit button (pencil). | |
| 3. Click the three vertical dots [s]at the top[/s]. | |
| 4. Select "resize image" and the size. (20 or 40% seems to work | |
| well for me). | |
| 5. ETA: Hit "Done," followed by "Save." | |
| This add a copy of the image to the Gallery page. | |
