There is a small down arrow above and to the right of your photo which opens a menu containing an option to edit your photo

Re: edit

Sorry about the difference in the gallery controls compared to the other two forums (e-group.uk.net and fourthirds-user.com) - DPNow uses a later version of PhotoPost for the gallery, but I didn't upgrade the other sites as I didn't think the later version was beneficial, frankly.

Re: edit

No probs, I have downloaded and edited a photo also an earlier post. I think I have grasped the size of the photos to upload although on the FTU forum competition (two shot) when I put a photo which had been loaded on the users gallery, on to the competition thread, it came up massive and you have to scroll around the post to see it. The competition (Celebration) on the DPN forum, tells you to keep the width to 800 pixels, so I presume that's true for both forums?
Just a thought, is there anyone on either or both forums that is willing to answer Newbie questions, as sometimes if you ask some one on a thread, it seems I am being a pest, because you then ask another question then another and some guys just don't know the answer!
Cheers
John.

Re: edit

Ask away, John - although a quick search first is always a good idea to see if your question has already been answered.

But yes, 800 pixels wide or 700 high if it's vertical format, is recommended for web viewing. Careful sharpening after resizing can also help.
