If you proceed to attach a photo from your collection, it will show up as a thumbnail with the option to insert full size. Simply upload the thumbnail. Keep in mind, though, that it will be harder for readers to see it properly as a thumbnail.

Hello Ron - please provide more information - assume you are using an iPad (and/or iPhone) - what model and what iPadOS is installed; and assume you're want to upload to a website.

There is no option in the iPad photo app to resize images but look at THIS LINK for many suggestions - for myself I usually airdrop my images to my Mac laptop and use Preview to resize images; however, I do have a number of apps on my iPad that offer resizing as an option (also the link has other apps as suggestions) - I can provide further recommendations once you reply.

Most photos will upload to this site without issue. Every once in a while I'll run into one that is rejected for being too large.

There are a few photo editing apps that will let your resize an image. I can't recommend any. Haven't used one in a long while. Instead I use a Shortcut that I made. It reduces the pixel size of a photo by about ⅔, thens saves it in the Recents folder.

I usually use it when editing after taking a screenshot, or in the Photos app.

Here is the link. You can modify to different sizes if you like. I chose .66 because much smaller and some of the text in screenshots starts to get fuzzy.

Hey TP - the Shortcuts route is well described in my link given above although I've not given it a try yet - maybe time to get into that app! BTW, the apps I have on my iPad will reduce image size easily but not that convenient if often needed. Dave

That's a far more capable shortcut than my one trick pony.

When you email a picture you have an option for the file size. Small, medium, large or original size. You could email the picture to yourself at a suitable size then save and use that version?
