READ ME FIRST! Let's take a breather from Facebook shall we? 🌬️

How to I get my picture in? I've clicked the + sign & gotten the option for which image to select, but after clicking "choose" it doesn't upload. I even tried logging out, closing my browser, then signing back in.

It wouldn't let me sign in with Google or Facebook, saying I don't have permission, so I signed up. Thanks for your help!

alexx88 oh that's annoying for you! Two things; make sure the image is a jpeg and also try downsizing it to no more than 400 pixels... that's a guess - but I think a smaller jpg has a better chance at working.
I'm going to look into the sign in thing and get back to you.

RuthPower I'll try to make it smaller. See if that's what it is. It's definitely a jpeg. One was a selfie from my phone & the other a picture I took with my phone.

RuthPower

alexx88 ok see how you go - I'll see if I can find any answers.

alexx88

Hellooooo!!!! Definitely a sizing issue.😆

RuthPower

I am very glad you are moving away from Facebook. I had closed my account from all Facebook products last year and just re-signed up because of this course. No problem, I'll be glad to be here.

Hi skipandrews yes, I reluctantly do use FB because some people still like it, but I try to get as much as possible on this forum and also on YouTube. So if you prefer not to use FB you won't miss out on any premium content, and the majority of the casual free content will be replayed on YT/the blog anyway. Good stuff!

RuthPower I'm on board with the phasing away from FB too. I've pretty much deleted all friends (& family lol), & will probably cut back more at some point. I'm basically only still on it for groups I belong to.

RuthPower

alexx88 this is good to hear - I'm feeling it!!!

Hi, My name is Marie. I’m totally new to music—not just new to piano! I found Piano Picnic through MuiscalU, which shares the same mindset of joy and exploration while learning. Glad to be here!

Marie3 welcome Marie! Glad to make your acquaintance. You've got such an exciting journey ahead and so many fun things to discover in the world of music! What inspired you to take up piano?
