How is everyone taking pictures of the game?

When I take pictures via my phone, the file size is like 1.5 megs. After emailing it to my PC, using a snag it tool and cut and pasting into an art program, I am able to monkey around for about 30 minutes to get the size I need.

Any suggestions?

I personality just post the image to the forum straight from my phones browser.

Depends - I have an S4 so the screenshot size is still under the limit (I think). Are you using a tablet? GIMP has a scale image function = pretty easy, just figure out the pixel size needed to be small enough of a file to post, I think around 250 kb. (5 minutes I transfer via USB cable)

Oh, I also use a cheap phone with a smaller screen; so idk if I have to resize the ones off of my S4. But yes I transfer to the Desktop, edit with GIMP to scale it down, then post. :)
