With the new server we STILL have to resize pictures?
Sparky's size limitation is pretty generous actually... you just can't post full resolution output from your device.
BUT... that said, if you don't like the constriction, you can just post your pic's at a hosting site (Wix, Google Photos, Imgur, Flickr, 500px, ImgBox, Dropbox, Free Image Sharing, etc) and just link them in your post here full size.
Then you don't have to downsize them and they don't take up space on Sparky's server either.
The only downside is if you ever close your account where the pictures are hosted, they will disappear from here also.
