please make an option to reduce uploading picture size through image picker, today phones are set to high quality photos that takes 2MB or more, and is absolutely not necessary to take that much space! the option should be original size or 360px width maximum, also it will help processing many functions to deal with a smaller images.  
users can put any pictures but glide should compress them to a selected size.

Even better if we could configure the min and max Mb of the image

yes, that too… but it would make lazy users or the ones who don’t know how to resize pictures, not want to use the app… 😉

I was messing around in the editor the other day and I swear I saw an option in the image selector to set the upload quality to low or high. I don’t know if I’m going crazy, but when I looked again I saw that option was gone. Could it be some new feature that was pushed into production early?
