Please resize the image before uploading it - large images will be resized to a viewable size automatically by the forum, but the whole image will be uploaded to our server, adding to our already very high storage load and slowing everything down.

@Lowena That's the camera quality - it's information about your camera, not a setting.  It suggests that your images will be large, because 15mp is a high resolution camera.
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

I resize all my photos with apps before upload here - the lowest res on my android phone and my iPad are still too large.

The iPad app is called Resize it https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/resize-it-image-resize/id844716779
The android app is this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplemobilephotoresizer&hl=en_IE&gl=US

Its easy - you just choose 600 or less for the longest edge, then save and upload. They can also crop and rotate. I've tried other apps but these are my favourites.

I rescale my images in Lunapic.

Got another tech question:
Attaching a photo, I can click on the button that shows up that attachment embedded in the text. Is there a way to control the size of this embedded picture? (Like, if I use an external photo link I can use the 'length=300' command)

No @Morzel it won't let you. It just ignores me when I try.
Hey Bill! Read the manual!  Hehehe.
