https://tinypng.com/ will reduce file size, though in my experience that still wasn't enough for the 100kb limit. After that you can resize it using Photos on Windows until it's under 100kb. That's all for using the thumbnails which in reality kinda suck unless you're posting tons of pictures.

https://www.uer.ca...d=1&threadid=60002 Go to section 7.3 for a guide on using flickr, it's just better. There's no file size limit, the pictures look better, and you don't need to scroll over every picture to see them. Hope any of that helps!

It's a bit of a roundabout way of doing things, but I keep all my pics on Google Photos and change the share settings to "visible to anyone with a link." Then I use this Google Chrome attachment to generate a bbcode link that I can paste in a UER thread to display the photo. Resizing has to be done manually or with some workarounds which can be a pain in the ass, but it's one of the best methods I've found without having to pay for a Flickr membership or something like that.

I usually use flickr or imgbb to put my photos into posts. By embedding from an external host you have basically no file size restrictions (apart from any that that site may have)
