oksewglad, To downsize the pictures that are loaded onto your computer hard drive: You could open your Paint program; then open your .jpg picture; then use the 'print screen' button on your keyboard to copy the picture image; then use the 'paste' button in the menu of the Paint program to display the copied image in Paint; then in the Paint menu, use the 'select' button to select the part of your picture you want (you need to drag a square line around it, because the 'print screen' button will copy everything that is on your monitor screen); then select the 'crop' button in the Paint menu to cut off the outside unwanted stuff of the image; then use the 'resize' button in the Paint menu to resize the cropped picture to the size you want; then use the 'file' button in the Paint screen to 'save as' a .jpg to your hard drive-- so you can then have your picture in a smaller size to use.

Thanks givio. I often crop my pictures...gets rid of unnecessary background junk...also have a newer computer and haven't found the place to resize the resolution on this one. I will give your method a try.

OK, JeanieG told me about Picasso, a free program and easy to use to put photos into your computer and size them to and export to desktop...you can even 'write' on the photo, put dates on them etc., love using it with my simple mind. LOL! Works with my Windows 10. Although it did a great job of scrabbling my FWSQ and FWPC quilt blocks in the transfer. not going back and straighten them out!

There are lots of ways to edit photos, but I wish I could just set my Iphone to take smaller ones in the first place. Is that possible? It's a lot of rigamarole to edit photos once they are uploaded.

Hope everyone's going to have a fabulous day! I just hope the sun comes out....

Bonnie, you might want to check go to camera and then settings in your menu.

Can't find anything like that. Where is 'go to camera' and the menu on an Iphone?

LOL I have a flip phone with minutes contract...down in the valley gets little cell reception so no need to have a fancier phone. A search yielded this information for you to check on. Best of luck.

Thanks OK. It looks like the resolution setting for photos is not "user changeable". I may have to go to the Apple store and see if they can help me.

In bit of a shock 'cause I opened the daily newspaper here to find out my sister-in-law (brother's wife) had died on Monday, but he and family did not call me. That hurts. May she rest in peace. My prayers are with them as they struggle to accept their loss. He is my only brother and we were raised with love of foster grandparents, then he found religion and refused many times to accept family ties. But it does not stop the love and the hurt.

I'm so sorry, NinaSue.... Sorry for your loss and sorry that you were not included in the family bereavement. The basis of religion is love, so wonder what your brother's problem is. I'm sure it hurts. Big hugs to you.
