How do I add photos to posts or profile?

[jeff dodge]

Thank you for all of your help. Let me start by saying that I am a computer idiot. I still cannot bring up photos to add to my posts. I moved my photos from my computer hard drive to the cloud because I ran out of space. Maybe that makes a difference in how to upload photos. I might have to get my son to walk me through it. Give me aluminum sheet an English wheel and a TIG welder and I can build you a body. Navigating around a computer, forget it! Thanks again, Jeff

Hi Jeff, @Jeff dodge
I consider myself a bit of a computer idiot too. By the way welcome to 914 World

It took me three years of not wanting to ask for help because I knew I was going to be asked for a photo .
Not learning to post photos was my biggest mistake I ever made since acquiring my car .The members here can provide photos , videos and possible the parts you will need one day and great support to make your ownership a pleasure .Its also rewarding to fix/repair these cars yourself. They also have cool drives and are fun to hangout with .
If you have an Iphone and a Apple lap top or desktop then I can attach photos to walk you through the process , if you are a Windows/Android guy possibly someone else can do screenshots to help you .
Let me know by tagging me with my screen name in a post like this ( @Ron914 ) . I will get a notification and add photos to this post .

Thank you so much! I might take you up on that. I have been dealing with electrical and vacuum issues that would have been great to send photos. The 914 is new to me so that would have been helpfull. The other metal and body stuff is easy. I would love to show pics of my car. Nothing incredible, but a neat car non the less. Jeff

Well lets see if this helps you:
The first thing to do is create a new folder on your desktop like in my Photos (This is on a MacBook Air laptop) you can then select the untitled folder and rename it (914 World Photos ).This will show up on your desktop screen as a 914 World photos folder, then select the photo from the photos album on your phone that you want to send (I selected a photo of my car , I select the download icon in lower left of the photo then Airdrop to send it to your desktop ,now open the photo and in the Preview screen select FILE , now from the drop down menu that shows up when you select FILE select Export , now you get the screen that allows you to resize your photos ( This is the most important step ,downsize by moving the quality bar from best to least which will change the file size try for under 500KB then hit Save and the photo will go to your new folder you created called 914 Photops (most photos you take with your high res camera will be 4-6MB and your post is limited to 4MB I believe so 1 or 2 photos will be all you can post . In fact a message just came up that I am out of attachments space so I will have to continue in another reply . This was a good example of why you want to reduce the file size of your photos as low as you can .
