I have always used the picture programme that comes with Windows ,now on Windows 10. Up until today it has always worked pretty well. Today for some reason it just won't resize my pictures so I can put them on the Forum.
Can anyone help or suggest another programme, not too expensive, that an IT semi literate like myself can use.
In desperation because I am pulling my hair out at the moment. >:(

Shelagh, there is this free tool, https://www.srgc.org.uk/forum/index.php?topic=9993.0 and now it is possible to simply add your photos to the forum without resizing - simply click to add them to your post, using the attachimg ( full size image option) and that works well. It is not 100 percent successful -there may be micro interruptions to connection that can throw it out of order, but by and large it works very well and is used by a great many forumists to post photos with no prior resizing at all.

Works fine to add the photograph without resizing. Sometimes the system can't handle more than 3 photos at the time (maybe it is the connection and not the resizing part of it) but then I do it a 2nd round if I want to add more.

Thank you Maggi, I will download it and try again.

Shelagh - please note that nowadays you do not even have to download that tool- see my post to explain about automatic resizing for the forum by using the attaching option and simply clicking to add your un-resized photo.
