How to upload vertical shots to instagram?

<p>I am quite new to instagram through are trying to find out how i can upload vertical shots that don't create white space on either side which the toggle thing does. The measurements are a 4 x5 for this i think. Everything I'm doing keeps me in square apart from that. This is an example of what i mean with having the whole vertical shot in there without empty space created on either side. www.instagram.comnickwaltersphotography<br>

<p>It will allow you to post vertical aspect ratios, but only to a point. 4x5 sounds very safe. Have you upgraded the app?</p>

If you have photoshop, use the Image> Canvas control to make a border along the sides to make the width equal to the

height.

<p>You do not need photoshop as Paint , which came to me with Windows 3.1.1, can do this for you at no expense apart from your time.... if you do not like white then organise a pleasing color?<br /> I organised a new 'canvas size' and pasted the photo to it and then filled the blank areas with the red color.</p>

<p>edit probably other simple [free] editors would also do it for you</p><div></div>
