This is just a test post with a photo.
This may take a few attempts to get the photos right.

Yipee!
It works!
Interesting that the image is actually correctly rotated on my phone.
I'll be posting a few things with photos soon!
Wish me luck.

Nice one Kurt and now you now what to do, keep notes of how you did it for future reference, then you can experiment with the size of the pictures.

I use the same app when posting images captures on my mobile phone. Very simple to use.

Thank you Ghostie, Fixer and mm for the encouragement.
I took the photo with the phone, downloaded to the laptop and edited with 'Paint' to resize (300 pixels max?) and then created the topic from my laptop.
Easy peazy!

Kurt next time adjust the size to 600 pixels on paint. I have found that size provides the best results.
