Carol’s Third Block

Hi Sophie,  I just tried to upload another photo and it didn’t work.  I can’t see anywhere that I can change the photo size before uploading.  Am I doing it correct.  I come here to add a post and then click on add media.

The little screen capture image here is only 14 KB. If you try to...

Send you an email Sophie with my photos.  Last time this happened they posted ok on another day. :)Carol   Carol, I did not receive email from you.  I think these are your photos–if so, you had problems uploading them because they are HUUUUGE (almost 7 MB each).  I was able to edit them to reduce the size and upload them, please confirm that these are your blocks? 😕  Sophie PS. the file sizes of these blocks are less than...
