This is how I add an existing photo to a thread using Tapatalk:
1. Click on "Reply to Topic" and type your reply.
2. When you want to add a photo, click on the icon in the bottom righthand corner of your screen that is between the camera icon and the bird icon. It looks like a mountain with a moon or sun in the sky.
3. A pop up box will appear in the bottom right hand corner called "photos"  with a number of options. Click on the option where your photo is stored. Mine are usually in the photo roll.
4. Tap on the photo that you want to upload.

5. Click on the upload button

6 Another popup box will appear giving you 3 options for photo sizes. I usually choose the small option, but here, I having been choosing the medium option.
7. That's it, but you won't be able to see the photos in your reply until you have pressed the send button.

There's a discussion on another thread about photos and I'm trying to change my photo size. 

I found this post but my tapatalk doesn't look like this.  I have tapatalk HD so I don't know if that makes a difference. I've checked and the app is up to date.
When I upload photos, this is what it looks like


I don't get the icons that Katie gets and I don't get an option to change the picture size.

Any suggestions?

[Mama Fergie]

Mine looks exactly like yours Chrissa 

[gertbysea]

That  is interesting  as those icons do not appear on my Tapatalk  at all. .

This is what I see.

[gertbysea]

I just downloaded the free version and guess what?. The screen did show up.



But the free version allows you to up load only 30 photos.

Gert

[gertbysea]

So mystery solved.  Have uploaded 27 photos from the free version so when . I reach 30 we will see what happens.  I must have had just the free version from the beginning before I bought the HD?


Thanks ES and Chrissa. There is always an explanation.

Ok. So I go to iTunes to download the free version.  Guess what.  No free version there.  There's a $2.99 version and the HD version which I already have.

Grrr.   I'm all geeked out for now

I'm going to work.  It will be more fun that trying to work this out.

PS. Gert in my searches I saw mention that when you reach then 30 photo limit, you have to purchase a hosting app for the photos

[Aussie Brenda]

I was going to go for the free one too to try it, but gone, just our luck

[gertbysea]

Did you go to iTunes or directly the App Store. I just did it and it was free.  Very frustrating.
Gert

[gertbysea]

Go to the Apps store search Tapatalk and you will see it. IPAD app for free right next to the HD version.

Still there.
