I have been meaning to ask this for a long time but never gor around to it.

I like to upload photos directly from my N900 to Flickr using the built-in support but have a huge problem with it, it ALWAYS resizes the images.

I have it explicitly set to "Preserve Original" which you would think mean upload as-is, but it always uploads them much smaller than if I use the web browser instead.

Am I missing something? Or is the Flickr uploader support defective?

iirc, this is flickr, and the reason why i stopped using it.
i'd rather have a plugin for imageshack or something.

The N900 specifically says it is processing the image for upload when in fact no processing should be necessary as its meant to be uploading as-is, which is why I thought it might be the N900 sharing feature at fault.

I suppose Flickr might have a maximum upload size for uploading done via the API, I will have to look into that. It would be a bit silly though if uploading via the website has no such limit.

I have a hard time imagining that pictures from the N900 is over 10MB though.

EDIT: I'm pretty sure the API Limit is 10MB too.
