OK, I put on my helmet, catcher's mask, chest protector, steel cup and shin guards cause I know I'm really gonna get it from the senior members who are sick and tired seeing threads regarding posting pictures and listening to the dumb asses who just can't understand how to do it.
I have spent many hours trying to post more than one photo at a time and have reached the "I give up" stage. I am a member on the sister site, Ford Barn, and have had no problems posting without resizing, although I have not tried to upload any photos recently.
I did many searches on GJ and have read many threads on photo problems, several of which had the same problems as me. But, none of the suggested solutions worked for me.
I am using an older Apple iPad, version 9.3.5. Early on, I realized the photos I was trying to upload were too large. I downloaded a photo sizing program and was able to reduce my pics to 800 x 600 size. I still cannot upload more than one photo at a time using the "manage attachments" routine and the smaller size files.
I also loaded some photos on to a personal album in GJ but still could not upload more than one at a time to a thread.
I tried emailing them to myself and, while very cumbersome, I could do it. However, on the iPad, I could find no way to upload the pics into a new thread from an email.
I also tried connecting the Ipad to two different PC computers in order to transfer the photos but could not get either of the computers to recognize the iPad. An hour and a half on line with Apple Techs could not resolve why the iTunes app would not load the necessary drivers to do this.
Many of the suggestions I read pertained to resolving the problem with PC's or Mac's but I have an iPad with no mouse or right click button to do what many suggest.
I would really appreciate help from anyone good enough to suggest solutions. Hopefully the answer lies in a simple fix I have overlooked or been too dumb to understand. Meanwhile, I'll leave the protective gear on in anticipation of harsh reactions from the folks fed up with yet another thread on uploading photos. Can't say I blame them.
