I have an Android phone and what I did was I went to my app. store (Google Play) and downloaded the app called Photo Resizer. I take a picture with my phone and then resize it with the app. and then I'm able to upload here.

I hope this helps. I'm not too tech savvy. My 17 year old helps and laughs at me.    :biglaugh:

You can resize them down to 20 % from the gallery. What I have trouble with is after the resize what to do.?

Once you open a reply box just below it you'll see a blue plus sign and it will say, Attachments and other options. Click on it and then click on choose file in the gray box. Select your picture from your files and then click Post in the blue box on the bottom right.

I am posting this picture from my android.

Glad it worked out.

I'm not sure on sizing limits here but I resize mine to 480x640 pixels on my phone or my laptop and have never had any issues with posting.

I typically use my iPad when posting to TG.  I used to have to resize photos, but recently I don't seem to have to do that.  I have posted photos that are many megabytes in size without having to resize them.  I think I remember reading on here that photos posted to TG would be resized automatically?  If so, maybe that doesn't apply to Android?  I really don't know what I’m talking about, other than the fact that I have posted large photographs without resizing them.

Same for android. The riser pic hadn't resizing done so it's automatic so far.

Okay so it's letting me only post one pic per post. When I choose another pic for two pics it post two of the last pic I chose. Is that normal?
