Posting Picture

This has got to be the most complicated site to add a photo from your phone or tablet's Camera Roll... I am getting an error msg saying to manually resize the images. Any idea how that is done? Advice/help is much appreciated

Yeah there are recent restrictions that prevent larger photos from being uploaded. If you use tapatalk app it will resize for you. Very annoying but apparently it was needed.

You need to use an external website with image hosting facilities and just copy the hotlink on here.

Use the tapatalk app on your phone for uploading pictures. When I first joined I wondered how everyone had so much time to edit their photos. Then someone else mentioned tapatalk and it makes it much much easier.

Tapatalk is easy


Cream-less broccoli soup was special



Peaches and whipped buffalo mozzarella was with heirloom tomatoes was nuts



Steamed clams with white wine, garlic and red pepper flakes were very good



Thanks Tapatalk

Just cannot understand why you think its complicated to resize a picture on any platform.Its so simple a child of 5 could do it, plus there are hundreds of free apps and tutorials on the net showing how to do it.Anyone would think its rocket science but in the real world just needs a little of your own brain power.Just resize to 1000 pixels which is perfect for forum use.Some of the pictures posted were a crazy size making you scroll side to side up and down to view unless you had a 60 inch screen.

This site works the same as any other site using BBCode

Either use an app like Tapatalk or open a Flickr account and link the images from there.
