    What's the largest size file we can upload for a picture? I always get a message that it's too big even though I take the picture with the lowest resolution my phone will go.

    You need to crop them, I use a photo editor. I select 10:8

    Is it possible to automatically downsize the pics?
    I see pics (specially via Tapatalk or mobile users) waaaaaaaaaaay too big.
    It takes a wile to load, and It's not useful.
    Technically is not good.
    Or ecological ...

    I'm mostly a PC user.
    And my pics are always downsized via Google Photo.
    Same size, less weight.
    Fast and easy.

    Today picture of SOTD is 1200x800px.
    But just 113KB, via Imgur and after Google.

    I could use an answer, as well. Trying to post a pic from my phone - file too large.

    I only post photos from tapatalk on my phone. Not gonna download to the computer and resize and then upload again. Tapatalk gives 3 options for size before you post.

    I think most depends on mobile camera setting.
    Starting with 4000x3000px makes It not easy ...
    Your last pic has normal size / weight.

    I've tried lowest setting on my cheap phone camera and still always too large. I don't care for Tapatalk so do on my chromebook after uploading them which normally resizes them
