Photo Share by Email Resolution

How do I share the full resolution image by email? It ends up at 1632x918

Hi there,

are you talking about one of the Windows Phone 8 deviceS? Have you downloaded the SkyDrive app and made sure that in the Settings > General that the photo upload size is: Original?

Lumia 920.

 

No, I take a photo and send directly  by email to email.

 

Lumia 800 kept the original size.

Re: Photo Share by Email Resolution

Sorry now I remember your username and that you have posted a few questions here and there about the 920.

I assume that because it is email there is a size limit when posting from mobile, not sure if anyone else can confirm this here, but wouldn't be surprised if it was due to that reason. I don't see any reason in this day and age why the full file size can't be attached to an email. You can always leave feedback at the Microsoft forums:

Yes I can confirm, pictures are resized when sending e-mail.

It would be good if at least one got question "resize yes/no?"

I've just tested this by sending a picture via email and the picture was resized from 7 MP down to 1.5 MP. However when sending a picture to the phone from a PC via email the picture size remains intact and doesn't get resized.

I've encountered the same issue. Attaching a picture to an email reduces the size of the picture substantially. Moving the picture to skydrive maintains the original size of the picture. I'd like to be able to email the full sized picture.
