    With a forum like this, you pay by the storage space and band width used. I did not want a page where you had to use a hosting site like Photobucket, so I opted to pay for open picture posting. The file sizes are limited, and we have expanded it a bit since we started.
    We just can't open it up full throttle, as it will get really expensive to store it all.

I was wondering if there was a threshold of total size that would allow a "large" embedded pic to show up using a pc as the fail to upload message doesn't list any size limits.

    Totally agree with the storage cost issue but it would be nice if there was a specific size limit listed for a pic that would post full size from a pc the same as from Tapatalk. That way the pic could be properly sized before uploading and people would not have to click on each pic in order to see the pic in the larger size which is already using the server space but just not displaying it fully. it's not a big deal but would just make things more consistent when posting pictures

    It could be that Tapatalk is already automatically resizing the pics to concur with the website limits.

    I can look it up and see what it is set to. Not sure where I could list it and everyone would see it though.
