It would be very usefull to increase the size of image upload. With my galaxy s3 phone screen shoots are to big to be uploaded into the forum.

I think the maximum you can post in the forums without scroll bars or external hosting is 640x480.
I already try to post a screenshot from my s3 and it was refused. Very boring to get help in this case or do a correct job of beta tester

I just use Irfanview to resize the pics if I need to. Takes about 3 seconds. Gimp is too powerful. Takes a minute to open the software. It's like a free Adobe Photoshop.

If I am on my Windows partition I use the power toys. Right click on image > resize > choose size > done.
