I don't know from where to make the screenshot's in lower quality..

Hello, open the file with paint. Then resize the file.

For example if the size is 1000*1000 convert it to 300*300. This is the simplest way to do that.

Greetings.

Are you trying to attach a large image, but is above 0.49MB? If so, you can upload your image to an external site, like Imgur, copy-paste the image link there and it should embed automatically. Normally, external links like that have a much higher limit.

Or, alternatively, you can try to use a program, like Paint, to reduce the overall size, promptly reducing quality. Hope that helps!

Kind regards.

I use imgur when uploading pictures to TruckersMP

 

Its done by first uploading the picture from my pc to imgur, and then paste the Direct link that shown next to the picture in the area where I want my picture to be shown. I works when making a comment in a tread and for status updates.

Some uploading sites will not embed the image. Upload it to any image hosting website, right click and copy the URL image address. Go to your status update box, click "insert other media" and then select the image URL option. Just resolve your issue.

You should use Paint.You can easily reduce the size from it. Or you can upload it to a site and copy and paste the url.

Hi @Erik0301

 

You can use a image host like Imgur: https://imgur.com/

When you will upload your screenshot, you will receive a link and copy this link.

Then, come back on the forum open Insert other media>Insert Image from URL.

Then, past this link in this box: 

Then, clic Insert into post

 

Hope I help you,
