There's a multitude of photo editing apps available for both Android and iOS. I personally use Photo Resizer X for posting on Facebook or online forums.

Rather than trying to be poking fun, you could instead try to understand how it's common sense not to post some 4000-8000 pixels wide photos on an online forum.

It's bloody common sense not to upload full size photos and use some size that will work nicely. It's anyway a waste of bandwidth as well and increases loading times. Especially it chokes up the bandwidth with many in-air satellite connections, combined with VPN. Also, if the publishing platform (in this case vBulletin on FT) doesn't scale photos inline nicely, then that too is a good reason. Thumbnails or clickable attachments would be better, since it works better for scaling, readability and bandwidth.

Bingo. Someone who seems to understand what the issue is.
