Using iPad
Send the photo to yourself via email, you then have the choice to resize before sending.
When you receive the photo/photos, save them (hard press).
You then have them saved resized in your photos on your iPad.
Bit long winded, hope it helps. :x))

For down sizing (can also tweak and restyle) an image, this site is also ever so simple to use...

Look (and download from) here - as it says, it first (?) appeared in Windows XP, and I've used it for years. Once installed, all you need to do is right-click on the picture file and the resize selection panel appears.
(In fact, I'm sure that it or a similar program existed back in Win 98 or even 3.11......)

I’ve tried a few times and cannot do it either. It is quite fiddly, especially on a phone.

If Using iPad or iPhone try the following:
Go to the App Store download Image resize (3.1k)
The free version has ads, try that first.

Thank you for your help. Image resizer did the trick.
