Occasionally, you may get an error after attempting to upload your images for your auction, stating that they are too large in file size.
Simple Fix (
If you're on a Windows-based Computer):
- Open up an image-editing software program. The easiest being MS Paint. ( Start > Accessories > Paint )
- Select File > Open... Then choose your image you want to on which you want to decrease the file size.
- Once the image is opened, click File > Save As... You'll want to choose a smaller file than what you have now. And if you're doing this in the first place, you probably have a .bmp file. In this case, you'll want to save it as a JPEG (.jpg). That's preferred with RailBid.
Once you've saved and you're all ready to go, upload the new, smaller file. You should be good.
