    Afternoon ladies & gentlemen.
    Just recently when I try to post pictures of my bikes either from my phone or my camera I get the "file too big" error message......any ideas you clever people (apart from take smaller file pictures of course|)

    I've been having the same problem recently, I'm guessing the file size for photos now have a smaller maximum size..I have to crop my pictures a fair bit

    I can't remember the size but I know I have had to crop the photo several times before its accepted..got a new camera so I assumed it was something to do with that?

    Ive not been having any problems, but usually I make sure my files are small to give those on their phones a chance.
    if I take one on my phone i email it to myself and it asks what size file to send I normally choose medium around 150kb. and then post that image.

    You'll have no problems with your picture file sizes if you make them 860 x 600 which equates to a file size of approx 0.1 m/b which is more than adequate for viewing on a pooter screen and phone.

    I use a free to download program call Pixresizer and this allows to play around with files sizes to your hearts content.

    If everyone who posts pics on these threads the forum would run significantly quicker.

    I looked at one of these as it really gets my attention, especially as you can ride it to a wedding, , a 4 into 4 would be nice but i suppose its a weight thing, how's the bars? they look wide to me, comfy?

    I`m guessing someone will bring out a 4 into 4 or 4 into 2 for them. The bars are ok, I was down Rykers cafe Monday (plan was to do loomies too), but traffic was damn awful that day when the M25 was shut 8 to 9...it was bedlam & traffic very heavy. I did some filtering & all was well. The mirrors take some getting used to but nearly all my bikes have low or bar end so it`s me being careful. She is very flickable & comfortable too. The exhaust has a real deep grunt to it & although she`s restricted to 4-5000 revs you can really hear the roar from her. No sign whatsoever of the well reported snatch which is a bonus. All in all crispey a really great bike that everyone Ive met has commented on positively.
    And if you fancy a meet up again at the Ace come summer....I`m your man;);):cool::cool:

    I know you frequent Loomies but it was a last minute decision as my mate had work & we didn't know what time he finished, had the traffic not been a car park we'd of pushed on but alas we didn't... The journey home was long as rubber necking at the scene of the accident caused lengthy delays for car drivers & put us on lane change alert.

    I find holding the phone further away reduces the picture size....
