My computer says the file size of this photo is 1.1 Meg, just testing to see if it would post, also testing the "drag & drop" feature.

Posted: **Sun Jan 06, 2019 11:41 am**

Mark,
Does the drag and drop feature work with a tablet or smart phone, or is it a computer/mouse feature?
Thanks

Let's see if it works, I just drug and dropped this photo using my Windows 10 tablet.

I don't have a smart phone, just a cheap Tracfone.

Great photo Mark

Here's my attempt. Upload from pc.

Posted: **Sun Jan 06, 2019 1:15 pm**

OK, I'll try drag & drop.

Yep, that works. Nice.

Posted: **Sun Jan 06, 2019 3:54 pm**

Testing. That is a 1906 Whizzix. One of the very first antique autos that shaped my infatuation with brass era cars.

Someday my car will look like Dan’s. The engine now runs but I don’t have a recent photo of it yet.

Why is my photo rotated? It wasn’t rotated in my photo library on my IPhone

Posted: **Sun Jan 06, 2019 8:20 pm**

Thomas, when I click on your photo for enlargement, it rotates right side up. I’ve noticed the same behavior with other sideways photos posted so far.

Posted: **Sun Jan 06, 2019 8:52 pm**

This is WAY easier to post pics.
From iPhone, select attachments, choose file,
select multiple pics and done !!

Gif works too, from my saved pics !!!

I think he does not use cotter pins...

Here is my test.

Posted: **Sun Jan 06, 2019 10:23 pm**

I'm going to try to post a picture.

On the side of a building in downtown Keene, New Hampshire.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 12:33 pm**

: I figured I better try this out too.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 1:38 pm**

Anyone know how to put pics in a pm?

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 1:44 pm**

Just seeing how it works...

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 3:14 pm**

Looks like it works OK for me too.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 4:27 pm**

Trying it out.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 4:30 pm**

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 4:48 pm**

Test of attached file.
Hmmm, will it display as a photo or will it only show an icon?

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 4:52 pm**

OK, and now for the drag and drop test.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 5:31 pm**

my test----

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 8:20 pm**

I notice on my post and other people's posts, all photos end up being the same smaller size than on the old forum. Does this mean the end of the BIG photos we used to display?

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 8:29 pm**

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 8:31 pm**

Roger, when you click on the photos, they will enlarge to their original size. All of your attached photos enlarged when I clicked on them.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 9:58 pm**

OK . . . should have thought about that.

Just got my registration confirmation email and wanted to test out posting pictures.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 10:37 pm**

Here is one, this was large.

Posted: **Tue Jan 08, 2019 9:06 pm**

2350 x 1387 pixels, 242kb test

After posting, the file changed to:
1200 x 708, pixels 162kb

Posted: **Wed Jan 09, 2019 8:33 am**

just a test...

Posted: **Wed Jan 09, 2019 11:31 am**

I believe sideways photos are the result of using a "mobile device". So far all my pictures from a real camera show up correctly.

Posted: **Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:39 pm**

“Big Photo” test.

Two old Fords at Watson Lake Park 2018.

Posted: **Wed Jan 09, 2019 2:13 pm**

It appears that the forum software resizes the photos in the neighborhood of a maximum 1100 X 800 pixels judging from the info at the top of the enlarged photos. To my eyes, they don’t seem quite as sharp as the photos posted on the old forum.

Posted: **Wed Jan 09, 2019 2:24 pm**

I am going to try a test picture!

Posted: **Wed Jan 09, 2019 2:40 pm**

A Big photo of BIG cars...39 & 40 Packards.

Gonna try this "drag and drop" thing...been a while since I've done anything like that.[attachment=0]

Posted: **Thu Jan 10, 2019 1:01 pm**

Great picture! I love being able to click on the small picture and being able to see its full size counterpart.

Posted: **Thu Jan 10, 2019 1:05 pm**

Thanks Mark! Yeh, I agree. Geez...lots to learn here. I don't "have time" to
ingest all this. Well, maybe it's also due to my short attention span?? LOL

Posted: **Thu Jan 10, 2019 1:06 pm**

Twrenn,
Your “drag and drop” worked. Enlarges when “clicked on”. I notice you have what I believe is a Buckeye bumper on the front. I had one on my ’26 Buick.

Posted: **Thu Jan 10, 2019 8:40 pm**

Well that worked.
Still not sure what "drag and drop" is.

Posted: **Thu Jan 10, 2019 8:50 pm**

I think I have it.
Who says us old fogeys can't learn something new?

Posted: **Thu Jan 10, 2019 10:17 pm**

Is there a limit on size? I have had a few photos from my full frame digital camera just show up black. When I changed the size they posted.

Posted: **Thu Jan 10, 2019 11:05 pm**

Matt, this was 2 MB, 3222 x 2647 pixels, and posted with no problem. Your black picture must be caused by something other than size.

Posted: **Fri Jan 11, 2019 2:10 am**

Yeah, "Drag and Drop"? I am going to have to figure that out?

Posted: **Fri Jan 11, 2019 6:14 am**

This is the photo that I was having trouble with. Original is 5.7mb. Shrank down to 2mb works.

Posted: **Fri Jan 11, 2019 10:42 am**

Matt, the photo I posted here “Old Fords” was originally 9MB. The forum software automatically resized it to 397KB. (1077 X 800 pixels)

Posted: **Fri Jan 11, 2019 11:33 am**

This is one my buddy photoshopped me into several years ago. Original 548x382. Jim
