RS, I thought it better to post this as a separate thread because it could get lost in the other one. It is about resizing pictures on an ipad. I don't have an ipad but my wife does and I have been checking it out.
I find that free Apps include annoying ads. The best I found is 'iphoto editor' which seems to be Ad free. You can get this via your 'App Store' app. The icon on your desktop is a blue square with a capital A.
This is a comprehensive editor but the resizing option is very easy to use.
The only downside is that you have pre-set sizes. I suggest that for landscape pictures you chose the 1024 option and for portrait shape pictures chose the 800 option. That should give you pictures that E4U gallery will accept.
If you have any problems I will try to help if I can by running your problem on my wifes ipad.
I know you have posted pictures in the past and it would be good to see some more from you.
I can also confirm that the sizes Grandad has suggested are nicely inside the maximum size limit for uploading to the Gallery which is 1280 wide x 960 pixels high for Landscape images and within the max height of 960 x 'whatever' for a Portrait image.
They are really lovely RS and I can't imagine how you achieve the effect.
What size are these that you have posted, to give me some idea of scale. And for someone who knows nothing about your obvious talent, could you briefly explain the process.
Grandad, they vary a bit in size with the dragonfly being the smallest and the poinsettia the biggest. I suppose, without measuring them, they range between 16" wide and 22" long approx. It's a fairly complicated process, involving tracing, cutting, fusing and outlining. Once that is done, the panels are padded, mounted and bound. I will be running a couple of workshop days next year for my craft club, who have expressed an interest in learning how to make them, although the designs will be different, because these ones are copyrighted to someone else. I have chosen to design a Christmas candle design (by popular request) and a Stained Glass window effect.
They are lovely RS you are very talented, I am sure that they look so much nicer than these photos show, are you able to lighten them a little as I can see some really nice detail that is being lost in your images. I tried to enhance the images a bit for you but unfortunately the file size is quite small so I cannot help in that direction, is it possible for you to do it on your I-Pad? perhaps Grandad can point you in the right area.
As an aside and because you are probably still getting to grips with this posting lark, you do not need to click that ‘Album’ link to insert a picture into your post as all it does is put the open brackets into your text, just make sure you are using the ‘Full Editor’ option in the reply box and it will automatically show the ‘Gallery’ icon in Green. You then only need to click on the ‘Insert image into post’ option below the chosen image to have it inserted into your post. A word of warning though, if you insert an image as you go along it will be where you want it to be, but if you insert several at the end of your text then they all appear at the bottom and you then have to ‘Cut & Paste’ them back to where you want them to be, it can be a pain in the backside if like me you are usually doing a long post with images.
Thanks for the tips, Horus! The light was bad when I took the photos and I'm no photographer - unlike the rest of you! Yes, I found out about Full Editor after I'd posted these! I'll keep practising though. I think 2018 is going to be a very busy year for me, sewing-wise, so I will probably have plenty of opportunity to fiddle. I'll see what I can do to enhance these ones.
I am so pleased that we can now see some of your superb work RS. I second Horus's comment, you have a real talent.
As for editing, you will find at the bottom of the editing screen, where you have your picture, 11 icons for different editing options. The second is 'Brightness' and the forth is 'Contrast'. These are the two that you most likely need first. Try the others in due course as you get used to editing your pictures. The icons have the function beneath but I find them rather difficult to read. But that is probably just me.
Again some more really gorgeous works of art so thanks for making the effort to post them. These latest ones are a lot clearer and brighter which of course shows them off better, so now you have no excuse. All we need now is to coax Kiya out with her camera again and we will have a full crew of posters
@RS - I believe you've said your DH loves to watch Ice Road Truckers. This is just a clip of what some of British Columbias roads look like now, specifically the Coquihalla Highway, which is mostly...

Oh Dear Ruby unfortunately sounds pretty much like normal for your area. I guess he was in Death Valley hospital? I'm so sorry for you all living there, hopefully now your brother is safely in St....
