Default Help with Classifieds

I’m trying to list something in the classified section. When I try to put a pic, it states file too big. It’s only a pic from my iPhone. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You will need to resize the picture so the file size is smaller.

Usually whatever App you use to view a pic will have edit facilities built in

My one, under "see more" has a "resize image" button

I think sending the picture on your phone to another device will automatically reduce the image size (unless you specifically request it to be sent full size)

I read this forum on my laptop and will transfer pictures from my phone to my laptop.
In doing so, it will ask the size to transfer.

Try taking a screen shot of the photo and then uploading the photo.

Email to picture to yourself from your (iPhone?). When doing do, my phones gives me the opportunity to choose the size, small medium or large. Choose small.
