RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted June 30, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted June 30, 2017 If you can upload to PB then you can just as easily upload directly to RMWeb! Dave Photo bucket uploads the full image no matter what size rmweb has to be below a certain size for some reason. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daifly Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 It's almost certainly to do with storage. it only needs a 300-400kb photo to illustrate a post here but your typical iPhone/iPad photo is probably 4mb or more. That's 10 - 12 times the storage required as well as 10 - 12 times the download time etc. There are a couple of good reasons for starters! It's the work of a few seconds to resize a copy for uploading to RMWeb or WT (that's Western Thunder). Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jintyman Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) If you've got a PC, go to Filehippo.com and search for 'Free Picture Resizer' It will allow you to resize the pictures and then you can upload them to RMWeb easily. In that particular program you can do basic things as far as picture manipulation, such as crop, brightness, contrast, sharpen etc. I find the resizing tool is easy to use, the original picture file is 6000 x 4000 from my camera, so the resize is set with the longest side of the picture being 1500 and providing the aspect ratio is selected it will be fine for RMWeb. My camera kicks out pictures that are much too big for RMWeb, and my phone is too big too, so I e-mail myself the pictures from that and deal with them in the same way. The app is here: http://filehippo.com/search?q=Free+Picture+Resizer Here's one I've just done from last Wednesday.................................. Paul did say he was looking for a couple of kettle's on here!!!!!!!! Jinty Edited July 1, 2017 by Jintyman 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted July 1, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 1, 2017 Thanks David, I never use my pc to upload photos unfortunately, I just use my phone or iPad as it's far easier so I need to find away of doing it on there otherwise I'll just have to not post pics Thanks again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Roger Sunderland Posted July 1, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 1, 2017 Hi Paul Don't know why I missed this thread but great to see you up and running with a new shed idea. Such memories for me around Bootle to Aintree. I'm slowly progressing with my fictitious "Walton on the Hill ish" OO layout (really hope I haven't upset Michael too much but it will never be exhibited, it's just the track plan ticks all the boxes for me). All the best, photophucket are a charming company eh? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you hit 'Send', you will be asked if you want to send them 'as is' or resize to one of three smaller sizes. Select the middle one as a sensible resolution for posting then 'send' Save the photos in your email when it arrives. The original photos won't be overwritten. You can then add these much smaller-size photos to your posts. It's clunky but it works! Dave 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave That's what I used to do Dave before I used PB but when I tried last night the photos I sent myself where if shocking quality once reduced and no good for posting, maybe rmweb needs to up its upload limits, must be quite a few people in the same boat because of this non of this hassle with fb though haha full HD uploads Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Rodger thanks mate I've started planning the shed it's going to be pretty large about 4K' PB is a pain in the ass but I'm not payin £5 a month to upload my photos. Good luck with Walton on the hill looking forward to pics of your own Not sure if your on face book but I've set up a group for weathering and the progress of the depot https://m.facebook.com/groups/441351382898306 Thanks again and hopefully I can sort the photos out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daifly Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Use the middle-size photos which will be c150 - 250kb and that will be fine for uploading. If you use the smallest resize option, the c40 - 50Kb output looks awful as you have found. Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted April 16, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 16, 2019 Well it’s been a very long time since I posted here but I’ve finally got back into modelling and quite a bit has happened since then, we’ve moved house and I’ve got a dream job working on the railway. As for the layout I’ve moved the location slightly to around the Edge Hill area and the track plan has changed but North Mersey Diesel 8N is still the name. over the last few weeks I’ve adapted some custom inspection pits from Intentio, replacing the MDF hard standing with Foamex, this has been painted and weathered and is ready for the fuel pumps to be installed. 7 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
