You could try this:


…and turning CAPSLOCK off might help everyone involved. 😉
 
Get a free photo editor so you can reduce the size of your image files.
 
I like to include one smallish photo with my ad because nobody pays attention to things without pictures. And I don't want to blow up everyone's phone with full-size photos.
Then I post the full collection of full-resolution files to Google Photos, create an album, share it with "Everyone who has the link", and put a link to it in the ad.

You can resize a photo using the built in windows Photos app or get a better editor for free: Irfanview, XNView, Gimp, etc etc
 
Infranview, XNView work good for that. and free
I use a portable version of FastStone Editor, no need to install.
Photo's depending on Resolution the picture was taken can get
rather large, avg for me with a S9 is 3-6 MB. Forum software limits
the size generally 400x400 in there abouts for "sigs" some other
things depending also on the file format. Some phones "resize"
the image resolution wise or ask.
Photography is another bad hobby..

Thanks for your help. I will attempt to follow your instructions. I am old school, using a digital SLR and downloading photos to my PC.
Best Regards,
Ed

This utility is very good, it gives you several options for resizing and a custom size.

I started getting more then the normal amount of spam.
