I have been trying to attach a photo to a new post, but I keep getting this error message: "- The file upload failed. Please choose a valid file and try again. Error details: PHP returned: Uploaded file exceeded upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini. Please contact your forum administrator with this error.
What am I doing wrong?

It's probably the same thing I had been doing wrong. Your picture is in the MB size range. You need to email the picture from your phone to yourself, but select resize, small size (10%), for example. Once the picture is in the KB size range, then you can upload.

That did the trick. I actually used Microsoft Office to open the image and resized it there. Thanks for the tip!
