All I do is select upload attachment.
Select Browse.
Double click on the pic I want to upload onto the forum.
Click Add File
Job done.

I always select 'delete pics from phone after upload' so my phone never has any pics on it. Keeps the memory free.

If you upload direct as wibbly does, you don't need a photo site.

Remember that as a forum administrator, you are not subject to the same post limitations as the rest of us. For everyone else there's a limit of 350 KB per attachment, which necessitates resizing the photo before uploading it.

Looks like you've saved the thumbnails, mate. You need to click (or tap if you're on a phone/tablet) to view the full-size image, because if the picture is larger than a certain size the forum will automatically downsize it to ensure it fits on everyone's screen. These are all 500 pixels wide, whereas the originals are much bigger. Compare the one you posted with the original.

For us the pictures have to be 1920 x 1080 pixels at most, and less than 350 KB (it appears that moderators can post images any dimensions and up to 2 MB).

This image is 1920 x 1080, but 346 KB. No tricks, no secrets, you just need to make sure your image fits those guidelines and the forum will do the rest.
