Don't give up, Mary. That little box in the lower right hand corner that Gayle mentioned is how you adjust the size of the pictures. I don't have PB, but I understand that from there you can adjust it to the size you prefer before submitting. I hope someone corrects me if I am wrong. Charlene The little box I am referring to is in the lower left corner & it shows up after I submit a post with a picture in it. I clicked it & it takes you to some kind of page for PB & it also says "This page not available" so I am just ignoring it for now. Mary, check out Steve's thread to see how I adjusted my photo. Oh heck, I'll just C&P here then it will be on both spots. Mary I don't see any box to adjust size. What I did was lt click the picture & these little boxes show up at each corner & the 4 sides of the picture (probably what Charlene is referring to. You put your cursor on any one of them & you will get an arrow to adjust the picture to different sizes. You'll see what I mean when you try it. I wish there was an easier way but we'll get used to it. And we'll probably find our own "easy way" to adjust eventually. Next time I'm going to see if there is some way to adjust on PB before posting. Does anybody remember a long time ago we used to have to enter the size when we used the insert image option. I remember one of the numbers was 540. Does anybody remember the other number as in 540 x what? When you use the arrows to adjust , the numbers show up as you move the arrows. If I could remember what we used back then I would know just when to stop adjusting. |

One more time and then I give up  Mary, the way I have been able to resize my pics has been to click on them once I have them show up in my reply box. You should see a number of little white boxes surrounding the photo after that. If you click on one of those boxes and then hold down your left clicker thing, you can then drag your mouse around to change the side. Actually, I think it let me do that for you. Once I post this, I will know for sure. Karen, thanks, I tried several times to do this and for some reason it didn't work for me. Once my picture showed up in the reply box, I don't see a number of little white boxes surrounding the photo. So I can't click on one of the boxes and resize. I understand what you are saying as I use to do this with photos all the time. Only it didn't work for me here. I thought maybe it was my computer so I used another computer here and it still didn't work on that computer either. If I click on the photo it goes all dark like it will when you want to delete it. Thanks for trying and thanks for making my photo a better size. At this point I really don't understand why I'm not able to do things everyone else is and why things I have always done no longer work. I may try again another time but going to give it up for tonight anyway. Thanks again! |

The little boxes around the picture do not show up for me so I could not drag my picture to make it smaller end it sounds like there are others that cannot do that either.

I tried to make the photo smaller....I had to use the edit function from Photobucket so part of the picture is cut off. This is a monument on display at the Athens Museum.  |

It's still too big. I was trying to find the corner you are talking about, but did not see any icons
that show how to make it smaller. Can someone repeat the instructions again please. Thanks.

Mary...not sure if this will work, but worth a try:
When you post a picture from FB....click the icon on the far right of the tool bar...</>
From there it looks like you can put the Embed code if you know how to get that?? and post pictures. I am not sure if it will work, but certainly would be nice for you if it does, right? Charlene

Trying to share Gitti's pic....well...i got the pic, but it is big. I know nothing about PB. to get this I right clicked...copy image address. I then came here...right click and pasted. It was a big old long address, but I highlighted it with my cursor....clicked on the landscape insert image icon...clicked insert and it showed up.  |

I never got the boxes on my pb pics to adjust sizes. Since I will be posting new pics for a while and I strictly ise my iphone I am shrinking the file before emailing it to myself. I then upload it to pb. You can also resize a pic individually on windows before uploading. As for Flickr, I couldn't get to work at all Kathy. It would only paste the code, not the pic.
