Hey, I’m struggling to upload a photo. I’ve finally figured out how to upload through Imgur but the uploaded photo is absolutely huge? Any suggestions? If it makes a difference I use an iPad.
Thanks in advance

I’ve just used it, there’s an edit function to reduce the size of the image, example below.
Or you can use Flickr, download the app, I use that for all my images now and you can edit the size etc
There are three approaches.
One is to do what you have done, end up with a massive photo. After posting, edit your post, and click on the tree button in the button bar. With a really big photo, you’ll find you have to zoom right out (ctrl -).
Or start new post, click on the tree, paste in the link then click on the Appearance tab, set the size you want (keep constrain proportions check box ticked). Something like 600x400 is fine.
Alternatively, in Imgur, select one of the sizing options, to change the size of the image you are going to post (it doesn’t actually change your file, but just provides a new link to paste, so no need to actually edit your image)
“Large Thumbnail” is fine.
eg. Large Thumbnail
Huge thumbnail is probably a big big for most screens

(too big here for the img tags)
Thanks guys, managed to get my photos on using the second option of re-sizing in the upload box.
