Default Re: digital camera

I recently drove 250 miles one way only to find the seller didn't know what he had but was absolutely insistent on what he was selling was accurate. He had his daughter post an ad but they couldn't post or send pictures. I guess I didn't ask the right questions but people tend to get pissed at you when you do.

I have worked with computers and software for over 30 years and found the software that runs this site to be very confusing for posting pictures. Mainly because you have to go into "Go Advanced" mode to attach the pics. I could see someone thinking "I am certainly not Advanced" plus there is the Icon that says Insert image but is really "Insert URL or weblink".

A second challenge is newer digital cameras create a very large file(lots of pixels) by default that some site software or network connections will not allow to upload. So that means you have to have a way to "resize" the picture down. I find a file size around 300KB or about 800x400 pixels usually works for most sites. But I would spend a lot of money based on a picture of that quality.
