    I hate to break it to you folks, but the camera phones are so good now, with regards to detail, that you need to reduce the quality/size of your pics before you try uploading them. I've been having that problem for awhile as well, with the ones I've been uploading. There's a free program that you can use on your computer, that will reduce the size of photos and rename them so you can keep the original ones for the quality. It's called FastStone...Image Viewer and you can also get the FastStone Image Reducer as a separate program for just batch converting without viewing the pics. You can download them from the home site in the link above. I use them for viewing, reducing and the viewer will let you link to a graphics program of your choosing so you can whiteout sensitive info in the photograph before uploading the smaller pic.

    If you're looking for one for the phone, I have no clue as I don't use the phone for stuff other than taking the pictures and putting them on my computer. :)

    Good luck.

    I found where the elk are hiding, but it’s going to take some ingenuity to get at them

    Is there another picture app on your phone? I know nothing of Apple. But on my android, I have gallery, then those are uploaded to google photos.

    If I try to crop a pic in the gallery, it posts on here as a thumbnail. I can crop it in photos though and it posts normally.

    So maybe try it from a different area of the phone.

    wedge is just a quartered head of lettuce,
    Blue cheese dressing, tomatoes, and bacon.

    I will occasionally ask for an egg with mine — hard boiled in half’s. Blue cheese crumbles, load it with some pepper. It’s a salad for those who don’t really like salad and can’t stand ceasar salad. Pairs perfectly with a steak, imo.

    Thanks for the tip, but I don't really need it setting up any faster than it already is. Except for the initial start, figuring out the right amount of water to add to the bags, I've been pouring it on the dry side so I can throw down some, place what I have down, bull float, edge and then repeat until I get closer to the stop point to go back over and give it a steel troweling..and then finish broom it after it sets up a little more. Since I'm a one man crew, that's why I don't need it setting up any faster...in fact, that's what caused this problem 30 years ago....it was 20 degrees in November and I had the pour scheduled with family for the Thanksgiving weekend, so we added calcium choride to prevent it from freezing....well the day of the pour and the week following, temps went up to 70 degrees, and it was too late to cancel the additive. That's why the back is worse than the front, we were able to cancel on the following load, but that first two were already baked....hence the current problem...and since most of the family isn't around anymore...it's just me, but the wife does help me clean up. :)
