Still can't upload photos

Yes, this is what I did. It took more time to get the photos not to show up as thumbnails in the posts and every time I tried to edit the post following the instructions something unpredictable happened. Got more-or-less there in the end and the first time's always the trickiest!

 

It does take a bit of practice to get the right size. With the original size adjusted by my camera I can then reduce them by 50% for GC using the edit. I've found it's not possible though to put them back to their original size without picture distortion.
