I would like to upload a profile photo that I took on my Motorola phone.  When I try to upload it, I keep getting an error message that my photo is too large-  around 3.5 MB.  Any thoughts on how to shrink it to the 50 kb max?  And yes, I am technology challenged...  :-)

Are you uploading straight from the phone?

Try downloading to your photo spot on the computer,than you can select a smaller size.

Than export to desktop,than post from there.

Also tech challenged,but uploading from the computer works for me.

I saved the photo from my phone to the computer before trying to upload it.  I also tried selecting a smaller size, but it was still too large.  I'll keep working on it.

 

Thanks- Bob

Bob, I have apple and use the medium size JPEG to post photos and can post about 4/5 at a time.
