When I get a photo down to under 512kb, it's then too many pixels high/wide.

If I get it down to within the pixel count it's probably to large in memory size.

Tried to create imgur account but can't currently.

What is everybody else using ?


have you checked if your confirmation email has gone in the spam folder ? thats a rather common occurance when people struggle to sign in to new services

Yeah, after entering a phone number (for verification purposes) it says something like
'cannot create account in that area/region' or something such sh*t.
Then tells you to create via a third party account.
Tried to create one via Facebook but then says Facebook links don't work currently.

Easier still get the picture on your pc screen
In the box on the bottom left of windows type snip
Click on the pair of scissors
Select the area of the screen that you want as a picture.
Back to snip -file save as.

This will create a screen resolution picture that'll be small enough to upload but big enough to see detail.
