help with picture

Post by JandD6572 »

How do I get a picture to upload on the forum? not sure how to make the file smaller.

I"m trying to post a picture of a book I found, well, the front page, I am trying to figure out what the book is, but its written old style german or something like that, and I can't make out the characters, so using google translation is helping. I could read a few, but not enough to let me know what the book is.

it's a pretty thick book, rough shape, the only thing I know for sure is the date at the bottom of the page "1759"

any suggestions?

thanks

First, it must be an image, not a word doc. Second, it has a max file size of 2MB.

Now it told me it would not load, I was trying different things just to get the picture on here, but that is the picture, its the front page of a book I found, I can't make out the characters, and was curious as to what it is, it has a date of 1759, any ideas?

Plus how do I get it 2MB?

You have to be in the Full Editor and Preview. Click or tap on Attachments below, then Add Files. On my iPad I typically attach a photo or upload something from Files.
