Blurry pics

[themcnertney]

As of lately my pictures I upload are small and blurry. I am using the r2r app on my iPhone 6s.

Have you tried via your browser .

Not on my phone. At work on my computer, yes.

That's what I was going to reccomended as well. Once you click upload file you can choose your phones library, then select your picture from there. You will then get an option to upload as "thumbnail" or "full image" choose full image for a larger picture.

Picture uploaded using this method

I am okay with using my internet browser on my phone. But that doesn't change the fact that something changed on how you upload pics using the app. That's what I would like to understand.

I don't really have a definite answer to that but my guess would be that Tapatalk is limiting file sizes.

Hmm its not tapatalk that I am using, its the r2r app.
I seem to recall a few other posts that were questioning how pictures were uploaded. Let me see if I can find one.

My understanding is that the app is basically Tapatalk, just for this specific forum.

Same picture as above uploaded via the app

This issue is killing me, because you know how I love my hitchhiker pics.

The picture is supposed to be clickable, because you can see the instructions to do so when you hover over it. They just don't "click".

I'm now in the app...

Well that solves that. I forgot I had room on my iPad to download the app! I chose the largest size, 1500+

I can certainly see this as an issues especially for id purposes. Unfortunately it seems this is a Tapatalk issue, not an issue on R2R's end. I would highly recommend to anyone uploading pictures to use the mobile site. And maybe if a picture like that comes up for ID ask them to do so as well so the picture can be viewed better.

Thanks for chiming in, glad that I am not the only one with this issue.

I don't have tapatalk.

I believe the R2R app is put out by Tapatalk, but not the Tapatalk app itself.

Yup. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

Photos are a big part of a forum, it seems odd such a clich would be tolerated.
