Now here's a thing....ever since the latest OS 9 update on my iPad, this forums icon on my desktop has gone white...completely blank. I resaved the page to my desktop and for a while it stayed showing some sort of unique image. But after switching off and on today...I have a white square again! All other apps and saved page links are the same ...no problem. It's just the Nikon DSLR site link! Thoughts?

Try deleting the link and re-saving it. My one is now a blue square with a N in the middle many of my sites are like that. Some however are still graphical icons.

Never posted from my iPad before, was curious what it would be like. I am not clear how you saved the forum icon to the home screen or desktop? I saved the recent topics page to the home screen and got a tiny image of the recent topics page which is always my point of entry to the forum. This is my first home screen. The Forum website link is bottom centre above the Safari icon. What a faff to add an image from the iPad! I ended up posting the image from my desktop. Grrrr I really find these things hard to use.

OK, so how did you post that image? I tried posting it from the iPad but it was too large??? to post on the forum. I tried all sorts using the iPad software but I couldn't find any way of reducing the image resolution or of re saving it, I couldn't even use 'Air Drop' to get it to my Mac mini, however, it had propagated to my desktop Mac mini via iCloud so I brought it up in 'Photos' then did a screen shot again on the Mac and posted it from there. I guess being a Retina iPad it's higher resolution but I expected to be able to reduce the resolution with software. I suppose there must be an App somewhere to reduce the resolution but there are usually a zillion to choose from, mostly junk or full or adverts, so I give up. How can something so simple be so complicated?

My screenshot of my desktop is over 4 Mb, the above screenshot is only 980Kb, more than twice what the forum allows. It seems there is a wide range of image sizes to be found when doing a screenshot on the iPad. Attachment: Screen Shot 2015-09-22 at 10.27.52.jpg (Downloaded 25 times)
