Pictures of my Rolexes can never post?
Hey guys, I take pictures of my watches strictly with my iPhone. I try to upload them, but every time it says they are too big. I see all these huge, incredible macro pictures posted with no problems. Yet, my measly iPhone pictures I can never post and have to upload to Photobucket, which is a pain and takes forever. Is there an easier way? I must be doing something wrong?

FYI I click Manage Attachments. Choose File. Photo Library. Pick a picture of my watch I took seconds prior with my iPhone. Upload. And then this always happens..
“The Dimension limits for this filetype are 1250 x 1250. We were unable to resize your file so you will need to do so manually and upload it again. Your file is currently 4032 x 3024.” So I go to my library on my iPhone and Edit and Crop the picture so small to be able to fit that 90% of the picture is gone and can’t be seen. |

I strictly use my iPad to browse/post. Honestly I can’t stand Tapatalk. I think the forum website is so much easier to use and browse.

i don't like tapatalk either but i use it to upload photos because its the simplest way on ios. all you have to do is select the photo and it gives you 3 quality options and resizes the image for you. i browse through safari normally

There’s a photo editing app called Polarr that makes it super easy to resize to 1250 x 1250. That’s what I use.

How do I even leave just the Rolex Discussion open on Tapatalk? It’s just showing me unread threads throughout the entire forum? Can I get the app to mimic the look of the actual website so I can use it normal? It’s awfully confusing.
Found it. What a pain. And wow the app is laid out terribly. They should just mimic the actual website in the app to leave us old guys less confused. |

Resizing doesn't mean to just crop it smaller, it means to digitally resize it to a certain pixel width/height.
Many apps let you resize for the web, size by a pixel dimension, or resolution. As long as you size it to about 1000pixel width and save it, it will likely load.
