I didn’t know this either - blimey.

I always upload to Imgur (other photos hosting sites are available etc) and post a link. Does doing it this way eat up all the server space for @Matty though?

Doesn't work with normal size photo files on your phone though does it?

Not full size, no, but selecting small or medium scales them down before uploading. It’s what it do every time I post pics here.

When I press add files and select a picture it doesn't seem to give me the option of scaling it, just says it's too large.

Just use imgur and post the link. Way easier and doesn't show the annoying white box round the outside.

So first picture shows the access road with the barn to the left and the weighbridge that goes over the road. He claims the weighbridge is part of his property - it is not.

Second pic is taken from my house where he claims he can't get out the side door. Car is parked at least 10ft away from it

Oh and where that Maserati is parked, there's normally an RS4 which is the noisy V8 he complains about. Also goes nuts if anyone drives over the weighbridge

When you add an image, then click “show selected” at the bottom of your screen - can then change to “.small”

But I suspect that this will indeed eat up space that we don’t need to….

Duncs - Where it says “actual size”. Press it and gives options

And back on topic: I can see how driving over the weighbridge could be annoying , and I guess the RS4 probably reverberates as it does so, but I assume the weighbridge was there before he moved in and people have always parked there, so my response would be, “Don’t like it? Move”

Did you click on this bit ?

Then on “actual size”:

Then you get this:

That’s what I did to post the last three posts

Is the weighbridge still in use by anyone? If not, I'm surprised it hasn't been removed. They're worth quite a few bob.

What's the first button you're pressing? The attachments tab? Maybe I'm in the wrong place, but I'm going the the attachments tab and "add files" (below the reply box).

As for posting pics - I've not seen this add image option before. Mind, I still can't post from my mobile at all anyway...

Correct.

When you then go to your photo library and select an image - don't click "Add" - click ""Show Selected" at the bottom of the screen".
Then change the size to "small"

That's very helpful mik. But I still don't see any option to add an image...
