Manage Attachments

[Healing Hands]

Oola, I am having problems with sending photos through by attachment. I manage one but others I have tried and it keeps coming up as Error or failed, can you help here? :confused:

I'm glad that you brought this up HH, because I also experienced the same this morning! Thought my pictures were perhaps to large, or some other mistake on my side.

I've found when e-mailing pictures to my daughter i can only send two or three at a time as they take up so many pixels, like dots that make up pictures on a TV screen. i found when i tried to post something particularly long on here i had to do it in three separate posts as it took up too many characters the same as pixels i suppose. maybe try two separate posts. Or something i found out this weekend; I was looking at my digital camera instructions and it made specific mention of e-mailing photos, there's some way to reduce them to to thumbnails to make them smaller to get more space for e-mailing. Could you check your camera instructions to see if this would help? I'm going to have a bash at this next time I email photos or post a photo attachment. Good luck.

I think my problem is from my camera. As the photos that I have sent where taken on my mobile and so maybe they are smaller. So does anyone know how I can make the pictures from my camera smaller? :confused:

Hi hubby says go to Google, and ask for "photo editor freeware". Most of these programmes have a function called "resize", Make sure once it is resized, that it is not larger than 19 kB. Good luck HH!

Not sure about this one - if you have the files on your computer could you right click on the photo icon and go to Properties on the menu that pops up. This should tell you how big the photo you want to post is. It should help me determine whether it's a size problem or not.

Thanks and sorry all xxx

Actually, I've just had a thought. It could be something to do with the amount of space on the server. I'll get Rich to poke around and have a look.

Hi Oola I tried what Crocus said but that was not right and I tried what you said to do and that did not work either!
