How to post an image when it's "too large"

[Lynnatchii]

Is there another way to post images other than attaching files or using the image thingy? It's really bothering me because I do arts and i can't post it because it's too large. I'm on mobile, i don't know if that's the the case.

I've found that sizing the image(s) down from their original size works just fine! You should be able to do that pretty easily through your phone and/or computer

Yes, i use a photo editing app to resize and that always works. I'm sure there is a way to resize using your phone default gallery app though, if you don't want to download an additional app.

you might not want to use a photo resizer because they often butcher the quality of the photo. when I upload large pics (like those taken with my phones camera) I upload them to ImgBB first, and then you can actually resize the picture on the forum by clicking the picture and dragging the bottom right corner to resize.

Spoiler: step by step

first upload a pic and copy the "direct link" to the image:

then paste it here:

then resize it using these corner thingys:

and there you go!

I wish they would bring back the auto-resize vbulletin had, tbh

it wasn't always the best at resizing, but for things I wasn't picky about the quality of, it worked fine

This what the resizing options look like on my phone that I use for quick resizing. Often the large option works. Hopefully you can find something similar on your phone.

These options come up after I select attach files at the bottom of my post and select a picture.
