Re: Uploading Photos and Files to 4x6Bandsaw@groups.io.
Most of the material is in files, only 204mb in photos. Personally, I like higher resolution photos. I get more info from them. Naturally, YMMV. William R. Meyers, MSgt, USAF(Ret.)

How many of the images are too large ? People often upload images of 2-3 Mb size when they could (should) be resized to, say, 1024 x 768, which usually results in an image of about 200Kb size. Still perfectly viewable at that resolution. Is it feasible to download, resize, and re-upload

available space (and put off the inevitable for a while) Peter On 11/12/2020 6:58 pm, Bill in OKC too

In either case, it needs the owner(s) to deal with it.?

I created this Group just before Yahoo went tits-up. Walt asked if he could take it over, which was fine with me, as I really don’t have the knowledge to manage the group settings.

Uploading Photos and Files to 4x6Bandsaw@groups.io.
Hi all
Dave made several pleas for how to add photos and I find can't add Documents to the files section either. I said in the last msg about the Fix for Vertical Squareness' document I attached that I HAD added it to the files section, as that was going to be my next action and I'd done it before (last time in April), That was before I found I COULDN"T add it.?? Now Dave's new photos, that several members admired enough to msg back,? are gone and if you didn't download the Fix... ' file its gone too I'm pretty sure its systemic so I sent the message below to the 'Help' email address on the home page Topic: 'Cant add photos or files' Message: ' I believe this is a software glitch ?as I was able to do it (last time April’20 for a File) ? Now the ‘+New’ button (in the Files section) delivers no dropdown box so you can’t proceed. There is now no facility to add new photos to existing albums, just to add new Albums .? Photos and Files will attach to a message, and can be seen and read by other, but only temporarily and then they disappear. Photos also appear in a ‘Photos Attached to Messages” album but that’s only temporary too. You can create a new album? as I did (Test album – to test whether can create a new album 10Dec20), and its open to all members to add to, BUT access to the ‘+Add? Photos’ button is denied with a red circle slashed across. These functions are important to to operation of our group, pls help – John Vreede' |
