Use either Opera or Chrome as your web browser and switch to
"developer" mode. Set it to emulate the device (phone ) of your choice
and have at it.


Thanks,

I was also pointed to this from another source, which basically says the 
same thing but in more detail, might be helpful in case anyone else is 
wrestling with this problem

Anyone who actually want's to look at photos on instagram should 
probably get a life.  That  said I have no idea how to get photos from a 
desktop to instagram.  I count myself lucky for not having at least one 
probably complicated and esoteric skill.


I have enough skills that don't impress the ladies, no need for one more.

Chromecast ultra

2018-12-24 Thread Larry Colen
A while back, after I got my insignia android tablet I bought a 
Chromecast Ultra to display the photos from my tablet on my cheap 4k 
monitor. Long story short, that was a big failure but I was able to use 
their ambient mode, log into my flickr account and display albums from 
my flickr account as "screen saver" on the TV.  At some point either 
Yahoo or Chrome broke things and I can no longer log into my flickr 
account from google home.


The problems with the software on this PoS are legion. With the caveat 
that I don't know how bad any of the competitor systems are, I can't 
recommend buying a chromecast, just because of the massive suckage in 
the UI. On the plus side, there are a few things that it does a passable 
job of, such as watching netflix and displaying stuff from a browser on 
the TV screen.


Last night, I was able to get it to display select albums from google 
photo.  It still has the major flaw of taking a photo, magnifying it to 
fill, rather than shrinking it to fit, which completely messes up the 
composition of any photo that wasn't processed to a 2190x1080 
(3840x2160) aspect ratio.


It turns out that if I process my files in the lightroom print module, 
to that aspect ratio, I can set it up to fill the background with black. 
If I then upload the photos through the google photos interface, at 
under 16MP resolution ( no real need to go beyond 8M with a 4k screen), 
they are kept on google photos with no storage limit. Of course, there 
is no way, that I can figure out, of getting lightroom to generate files 
this way from a set of files that preserves the original filenames, but 
that is a rant for another day.


So, the bright side is that I can now set up a random slideshow of my 
photos to show on my "TV" during Whiskymas tomorrow.  It's an awkward 
pain in the ass, but after a fashion it works, and if anyone else has a 
chromecast and wants to show their photos, it's one way to do so.

I did 90% of this years edits with ON1 and it sure looks and feels
like LR to me. I dont do a lot of edits and never really dived into
the progra, hard but i like it. Dabled in the hdr and pano modes for
sun. One nit is they hide sliders that LR has up front so its a bit to
