Can someone explain to me how to change the picture size in order to post on the forum? I have an apple iPhone and sometimes the photo will post but most of the time it says they’re too large

First make a copy to resize, and keep the original file for possible future use. Once you shrink a file you can't change it back. Open the copy and click Tools. Then click Adjust Size. Reduce the height by one pixel and click OK. I don't know why, but that one-pixel reduction is all I need, despite all the bather about limits.
The inevitable often happens.

Steve, this is on my iPhone; I don’t see “tools” when I open the picture, just edit and there’s nothing in edit that I can see that reduces pixel size

Same here on phone and iPad. I do have an image adjuster but I do it so infrequently it’s a pain. I did just manage to do it today.

I sometimes use an ap - Resizer on my iPhone. Seems easy enough.
You can also email the picture to yourself and select the size. Then save it back to your phone.

Try emailing it to yourself. Some email programs automatically reduce the file size of attachments.

Thanks for all the suggestions: I ended up downloading a resizing app and it’s all good!

I'm struggling to stand out in a crowded app marketplace, but this article on app competitor analysis gave me a fresh perspective on how to stand out. By analyzing what my competitors do well and where they fall short, I can focus on creating a product that offers unique value to users. The section on identifying potential gaps in the marketplace was especially enlightening - I'm looking forward to new opportunities!
