I've got dropbox so I'd use that if I were posting pictures from the camera
I have drop box on the phone so that's good too.

Are you using "An application"? It can automatically upload an image to their servers and link it in here

To be fair, I've never done a whole lot of uploading pics from my phone. If I have "An application", I'll give using it a go.

i've never got on with using dropbox to share pics, i much prefer photobucket to flickr. but then i have been using it for years. imageshack.us used to be a good one too, especially for throw away hostings, but again, not used that in years

It's pretty easy to add an image, just click "Choose File" and then click "Add the file." If you see that error it's because the resolution of the image is too high. The current limit is 1024x768. If you want to show higher res photos than 1024x768 (not sure why you would) then you'll have to use a service like flikr or something similar.

I've never understood why forums don't resize images on the fly to avoid this. Lazy bloody developers!

Any reason why this might be? Is there a minimum size for pictures to upload here? Its picture taken on my cameron, but that should not be a problem I guess?
