Via my phone, I take a screenshot and then crop the photo - that took this pic from 3.7M down to 532K.
Then using "Manage Attachments" (as others here have outlined) that seems to get me to where the picture uploads.

My technique on my iPhone, cause that’s where I take the photos:
Using the phone’s built-in photo editor: crop it, put it into a 3x4 aspect ratio.
Use these forum buttons in your post:
-Manage attachments
-Choose file - navigate to a photo album, select photo, choose Medium size.
-Upload
-Close the window
-Preview post and see how it looks
-Submit post
Notes:
If your photo is too big the process chokes and won’t upload. Select a smaller size.
Photos of about 400 Kb seem to work best for size and detail, but experiment and Preview before Submitting.
When you Preview and don’t like it, go back and Manage it, delete it and try again.
I hope this helps.

Thank you for sharing your tips. I also want to share my technique, if you can call it that. I sell SUVs, and a lot of cars pass through me. I have to take high-quality photos of these cars and do it so that the customer is satisfied. This is a whole art, in case you didn't know. After I choose the right angles for shooting, I remove photo background so that people's attention is not scattered on the surrounding, and all they see is a car. To do this, you need to choose the right lighting and direct the car towards the sun. This really subconsciously helps the car look better for the buyer.

But for those of us who use our computer & not ours phones?
I could post many more cool pix if not but for file size too large. With my iPhone 12Max the pix are pretty big. And no, I'm not dumbing down my camera for a forum as I frame some pictures...

Only way to get them to upload from pc is to resize them then upload. The phones are doing it when you upload via the app anyhow. Sorry just how it goes

Ok, I figured out how to do it on a Mac from the Preview viewer. Not bad at all.

IF the photo is larger than the max. upload size via a pc. I honestly don't see how. As that fixed size or max upload.
Making screen shots is just making a smaller photo size to send.. Its nothing more then another way to resize a photo. Which does work on computers or phones both. ;)

Forum software apparently resizes big photos, at least for me. Clearly others
are having problems with it, and I don't know why.

At least i'm not the only one... I guess you can resize.. but that becomes tiresome.

What forum you talking about? This one?
What you speak of hasn't happened to me in recent memory.
I know on FB and some of the other Forums it's never been an issue. I like it here the people are good and the Knowledge here is sound.
