Hi there. Photos from my iPhone SE 2020 are "too big" to be posted to this site. Can this be fixed?

mine are too, Samsung. If you email to yourself save to pictures. Then open pictures file, find your picture, right click on it go to resize picture. Then select mobile picture should work. Save then try to upload should work.

If anyones got an easier way please let me know it took me ages to find this one. lol

They need to be no larger that 800 pixels on the longest side.
I use an App on my Iphone called "resize it". It also allows you to rotate pics if needed. Can't remember if it was free or cost @1.50

Maybe Westlabs can add the Auto resize feature to the board . Most Forums using the latest phpboard will do this now . You just upload pic of any size and it resizes it . However this seems to cause havoc with the Auto rotate attached to pics meaning that if you take your pic on your phone with it upright , the forum posts it on it's side .

Hello,

I have increased the maximum limit. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

WOW thank you Westlab.

Just had to try .
still couldn't send a pic straight off phone ( approx 3000 x4000 pixels)
had to keep resizing it .
seems maximum size is around 1700 pixels on the longest side . 1750 pixels was file too large error
