Simple question cuz I'm a tech idiot and I become lazy, would love to upload pics straight from my phone and not have to dowload them to my 'puter and upload them from there.

I do, but I have to make them small first.  I use a free app called 'Photo and Picture Resizer'.

Me too.  I resize them then download to the site.

If you use an iPhone, you can now choose what size photo you want to upload. You don’t have to mail it to yourself or use another app to resize it.

Hmmmm, I am a tech idiot too and have never bothered figuring out how to post pictures. But I just switched from Android to iPhone and may need to give this another go!

Apparently I need to do the update my iPhone keeps telling me to do then. Maybe @slonezp was on to something with his post. ?

What is this "upload" you guys are talking about? Where are you uploading pics to be able to post them here?

 

When I am posting here I have no way of adding a photo except "Insert exsisting attachment" You can only have so many photos in your albums here.

 

It's been frustrating and to say the least to figure out how to post photos again. I would love a sticky thread on here with a walkthrough on how to post a picture.

Right below the box where you type your replies to a post, the is a line that says " Drag files here to attach or choose files..."

If you click on the words "choose files..." It allows you to choose  the photo file from the device you are using.

That must be the problem. I don’t have that option in that box. All it says in that box is insert other media.

Fellow tech idiot here. I use my phone all the time. I resize my photos by emailing them to myself, super simple and idiot proof if I can do it. ?

I never thought about emailing them....but I have text them to myself to resize them lots of times?

I download them to my computer and use snipping tool. That's about as techy as I get.
