I noticed earlier the "attach a photo etc" at the bottom of the box and tried attaching a photo - wasn't a pretty one though, so instead of annoying everyone on that thread, a new one. 

I do have a question though, is it possible to reduce the size of a photo that has been sent to me?  Most of the photos that I have are over 500 kb

Hi Anna

What graphic programs do you have?- it is fairly easy to do. If you open the image with whatever program you use for graphics and  find the appropriate pull down menu - Edit, Image or whatever. You can then Resize by either a percentage or pixels. Save the image using Save As <some other name>  In this way you can keep the original safe.

I have tried to upload an image to my profile, but nothing happens.

Any clues where I am going wrong?
