 Yes, the Samsung pics these days are about 4mb in size, there is a restriction on photo sizes now, 2mb is the biggest now.

 Are you able to resize them. The big files just clog up the database and slow the load times.

 Photobucket works well it's the only think I use when uploading off iPad which is basically the same as iPhone. Just gotta copy the img code, paste on here and disable rich text

Doesn't work that way when uploading a single image as the file has to be stored on the device you're using
