Happy to help!
How are you trying to post them?
If using the Nomad attachment feature, the photo file size is limited to 342 kbs.
Since most of us have larger photos, we attach them from other websites (hot linking) using the [img] tags.
We have found the best FREE photo hosting site now is Postimages.org
The only thing you need to do before uploading to a Postimages album is to set the upload size to 800 pixels or less. Just click the menu that says
"Do not resize my image" and it gives you the resizing choices to fit on a Nomad page with stretching it.
The top post in this forum explains it all:
===================================================================
To post photos from your Pictures folder on your computer...
Go to www.Postimages.org, make an album if you want to organize your photos to find them easily in the future (by date or by subject). No cost to use
Postimages.org.
Change the upload setting from "Do not resize my image" to 640x480 (recommended for forums) or 800x600 (max. on Nomad). You click on the little arrow
to see the size choices.
Click "Choose images" and select the photos you want to put on Nomad from your Pictures folder.
Click on the image you want on Nomad and click on "Share" at the top of the screen.
Choose "Hotlinks for forums" (down next to the last one). You can click the little box at the right end of the link and it is now saved on your mouse.
Go to Nomad and paste that link onto the place where you are typing on Nomad. You can put text in below the photo for a caption or your post and if
you double space between photo links (for clarity), you can put several photos and captions in a single post on Nomad. You can click "Preview" on
Nomad to check and see how it will look before posting to the board.
If you need to fix a post after it is done, click on "Edit" along the edge of your post, and change or delete your post. If you edit more than once,
you can delete the previous Edited on tags so only one edit tag will appear after you edit the post.
