Arrrrrrrrgggggg

When I take a picture with the Moto X and then send it to PHOTOBUCKET it is tiny.
What can I do to get them back to 'real' size again?

They are about 1/3 size compared to the Droid I used to have.

as far as i can tell you can't change the size. you can only turn HDR mode on, off, or auto, whatever that means.

Im really annoyed with how bare bones the camera options are. How can you not be able to change photo resolution?

I'd assume, if you cannot change it in settings, it would default to largest possible. Is anyone else having this issue as well?

I emailed a few photos from my X and they arrived at full resolution for the camera. If you want to be able to take images of smaller sizes and different qualities, I suggest ProCapture. It has a variety of different settings and modes. It allows you to adjust WB, Exposure, focus mode, scene modes, image size and quality. I only wish you could set it as the default camera for Quick Capture. Still it is worth checking out. I've been using it for quite a while. Not always as my main camera, but it's there in case I need to do a little more tweaking.

It' s not the resolution that stinks- it's the fact that when emailed/uploaded they are TINY sized.

I'm sure you rebooted the phone to see if that made a difference....that's always my first resort :)

This is very odd. I just got this phone from Sprint yesterday and I could not find the resolution setting either. I prefer to use lower MP, but not such that is bad quality.
