    I am at a loss as to why you would be being logged out :scratch: - sadly, things are much more difficult when it comes to phones, and I would be the first to admit that I don't have a fantastic knowledge of the nuts and bolts of them. If it is any consolation, since the last Android update, my phone 'forgets' to switch the screen off on an intermittent but regular basis; I have restarted it time and again, and yet it persists. Mrs C has the exact same phone, both bought at the same time, and hers is fine.

      Phones are a mystery to me also.
      Mine just disconnects itself from the network whenever it feels like it.

      But it doesn't tell me its not connected, I have to work it out for myself.

      If any bit of technology is being perfected by the consumer, phones are, total load of old rubbish IMO.:biggrin:

        Just for info:
        GC is resizing my photos OK (the slight glitch yesterday was probably due to the system being tweaked by FC) and they're are all 1.4 or 1.5mb. I'm using Windows 7 and IE 11. I'm just dragging and dropping the photos. It limits me, and always has done, to 12 photos at a time.

          Update:
          Yesterday it wouldn't let me upload anything bigger than 1mb so resized to 800x600 (came out as .867mb) and uploaded OK.

          Resizing took three clicks on the computer and about 5 seconds for it to work.

            Not sure what fiddling around has been done, but up till now I've never had problems loading pics.
            Tried tonight and it wont accept them anymore.:frown:

            Anyone got a resizing programme that works in mbs rather than 500X 500as an example.

            If we are told we have to resize to a certain MB size how do we know what number to pick.?

            Probably go back to photo bucket if things dont work out.

              Hi Pete, restart your pc and it should be fine, it does not resize in MB but other options, if you right click and on a picture and chose properties it will tell you the size in MB, the two pictures below have been resized to 800x800.
