Is there a instruction on how to upload photos directly to the site? Specifically what the maximum file size/resolution is?

Hi Geoff!

When posting a message, look for the tabs 'Options' and 'Attachments' below the message box.
Choose 'Attachments'.
Add a photo, the current maximum size is 5 MB.
Write your message and press Submit.

That 5Mb, maybe I missed it? I tried to upload some photos shot with the max of my phone, and it rejected them. So I shrunk them half way and it worked. So perhaps in the blurb: "If you wish to attach one or more files enter the details below. You may also attach files by dragging and dropping them in the message box" could 5Mb be quoted as the maximum file size if you have access to this component of the UI?

It's a hassle editing the texts that are part of phpBB3, which is what the forum is based on.

So frankly I'd rather not.

A "sticky" in this sub forum?

Just make mine with a little key thingy like above it on this screenshot?
