Hello,  the drag-n-drop doesn't work.

And it says " No more attachments are allowed today" why?

Greetings

Rick

@Rick59g, your account is brand new, so the first posts have to be manually approved. After this, you can upload images. This is to prevent spam.

Being quite new to a forum I am sending this as the first post so I can upload photos later...

Or is the first post a submitted photo?

I would like to add that PL has been fantastic to change me; from taking pictures to taking photographs.

Andy

Use your editor of choice to downsample the image, or export from your raw developer at a lower resolution / higher JPG compression.

@andyfrog , a quick and free program that's good for this is Irfanview.  It's a freeware program that's very nice for viewing, and for changing size, resolution, color depth, file type, etc., including batch operations.  Operation is reasonably fast. Not much good as an editor,  but makes a dandy default file viewer and reads NEF files natively with correct exposure and the like, which not all viewers do.
