I want to resize images but here’s the rub. I have accessed the recommended site suggested by Norah and successfully followed the instructions. Then I am asked where I want to have the image saved. “Back where it came from please in the section helpfully marked ‘photos’ on my iPad.”
But no, that is not an option. I am given a couple of choices neither of which I particularly understand and even if, somewhat fortuitously, I do put my resized image there I do not know how to take them from that location and put them on this site. I need a clued-up seven year old? Are there any going spare? Computers, eh? It’s just modern day witchcraft.
My PC automatically puts them in a section called Downloads. I then clear them to a folder I've made for re-sized photos. Maybe that would work for you.

My entire working life was spent in IT (although back then it wasn't called IT) and I don't have a mobile phone, never will. No portable computing devices of any kind. Makes my eldest daughter smile and my youngest grit her teeth but they both still call when they have a problem!
So I went away for a few days to stay with No2 daughter and be a Nanny for a while (grandson is a delight, he's 2 going on 6 and v funny) and when I get back I can't log on to the site. Been trying on and off all morning and just managed it, where is that witch when you need her?

I wonder if IT is a bit like pop music. One day you stop listening and, before you know it, you're so far out of the loop that you can't even see the loop.
@Picidae. If you take the photos on the iPad I don’t think they are that big. I can view any photos of my own that I put on the site. sometimes I will edit them from the Photo page, you can then cut of the edges a bit, that reduces them quite a lot. ( if you haven’t discovered that I could talk you through it) 🙂 I wouldn’t need to use a photo reducing site if I use the iPad, and my camera, I can Reset to take them smaller in the first place.

Not sure pop music is a loop @B3 more of a tangle I reckon, lots of 'pop' in the 90s had serious echoes of the 60s and every period has it's 'hark back' bits. I reckon IT is more like cars, used to be able to dis-assemble a carburettor, clean the needle, re-assemble and all would be well. Now they just get plugged in to a diagnostic machine - more witchcraft!

"curmudgeonly" doesn't even begin to cover what I'm feeling right now. I've just posted this on the FB page of our electrical supplier:
Since moving to Devon 7 years ago, I reckon we've spent almost £20,000 in Woolacotts in Holsworthy on this , and 2 rental properties. No more! We had a new washing machine delivered to-day but the guys couldn't fit it because the waste was " on an extension pipe" AN EXTENSION PIPE FITTED BY WOOLACOTTS!!!!!. I offered to sign a "waiver" to accept any responsibility for any future leaks, but no, that option is not available. I'm sure someone sitting in an ivory tower at head office thinks this is a great idea, but your delivery drivers/ shop floor staff may see it very , very differently. Woolacotts used to be a byword for excellent customer service,however, I see you've now just gone done the "dogma rules" , "we're terrified of litigation" route adopted by so many short sighted companies who can't use , or perhaps don't posses any common sense.

and also they're both a load of mass produced nonsense designed for instant gratification rather an expession of skill and art.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
@Hostafan1 Water regulations state: "the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length." Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpipe, that the end does not go down more than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose is pushed down too far, this may cause the machine to self -syphon ie. continuously empty."
If this is any help.

Do you think they'll get the message??
