Title: Making Pictures Fit:
Post by DBC on 04/07/15 at 17:08:04

I'm an Idiot and can't figure out how to properly scale photos to fit when I post them. I use Google+ Photos and have not figured out how to reduce image size to fit within the frame of the forum.

Any advice from the experts is appreciated.

I'm not sure what Steve's width limits are. Trying sizing something down to 500 wide and see if that fits. In the What's Spinning thread I typically try to find album covers under 500 X 500 so they fit; so I think the limit is around there somewhere.

Thanks LR,

I just did one at 480 and it's a bit small. Looks like I'm on the right track here.

Looks like with Google Photos I have to download off the cloud, edit / re-size on my desktop and then upload back to the cloud.

If anyone is interested it looks like ideal photo sizing in about 640 x 360 to fit in the forum frame.

Correction, an image at 720 x 405 will fit within the forum frame.
