How do I reduce the size of my photo, to post it? The limit is 1200, and currently the image of my headlight is twice that as either a Tiff or BMP file.

Thanks, Paul S

If you open the picture with MS Picture Manager, or your own favourite photo manipulation prog, you can reduce the size of the pic.

It will be much smaller if you convert it to a JPG.
A man rides on his STeed, says “Why am I short of attention? Got a short little span of attention”.

You can call me Steve, with apologies to Paul Simon.

You could use an online resizer, something like this would probably do the job: https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/resize  :thumbs

My favourite image app is irfanview. It is free, and works really well and fast.
Cheers,
Gary
