Posting pictures from an ipad/iphone. Tutorial

[David Van Asperen]

I really am in the dark and need a step by step lesson. My computer skills are VERY limited .
I have an iPhone and would like to upload the photos from my phone to Wood Barter, this may just be a dream but is there a super easy way to do this. I have had my wife help me in the past and it has always been a chore. I really want to be able to do this by myself easily.
Please no tech talk I really do not understand most of those terms.
Thanks so much for all you do for this old dinosaur

Ok here ya go... Click upload a file...


Then choose file


Then choose existing


Then choose the album you have them in (likely camera roll)


Once you find the one you want, just tap on it. It'll take a minute or so depending on the size of the image. Once it uploads it will show below. You can insert as full image so people don't have to click it to make it viewable

I am so thankful. I only wish I could have had the courage to admit this long ago. Thanks ever so much.

It looks like we don't need to take steps to reduce the size of the files.
Does the forum software adjust the file size of the photos?
One group I belong to is •very• uptight about uploading photos right off the phone, so if we don't need to worry about that issue, its a relief.

I'm not sure if it adjusts it. I guess no it does not. But I usually reduce the size of my pics by sending them in a message to myself on the messaging ap on my phone. The incoming pic is always reduced automatically there. then I save that photo into a special file I use specifically for forum posting usage.

Yes, it will allow upto 20MB upload size, and will then scale the photo back down once it's been received by the server.
