I just used the "attach files" icon on this one. Then I clicked "insert" then chose full size and it worked

Adjust Image Size

A new release of Xenforo that was just installed on our site has some already known bugs.
One is that the image editing tool that pops up underneath the image when you insert the image, and which allows you to resize images by pixel size and other things, seems to have disappeared. You can still resize the image by resizing the blue box around the embedded image.
Annoying, but Xenforo has confirmed they will fix the bug at some point.

Testing to see how to post
Another test…no prob
Today we installed the newest release of Xenforo, which has corrected the bug. The image editing tool bar now pops up again when you are inserting an image into a message.
As illustrated in my screenshot below, after you insert an image into the text box, click on it. This will bring up the horizontal image editing tool bar, which will appear under big images or on top of smaller images. You can resize images in various ways with this tool bar, align images, and do other things. You can also resize images just by dragging the corners of the box surrounding the image after you click on the image.

If you’re uploading from an iPad, this happens quite often because photos are usually high-resolution by default.
A simple workaround is to resize the image before uploading. You don’t need anything complicated:
Another trick is to email the image to yourself—iPad often gives a “small/medium/large” size option when sending, and you can pick a smaller version.

- Open the image in the Photos app and take a screenshot of it (screenshots are usually smaller in size)
- Or use any basic image editor/resizer app and reduce the dimensions (for example, from something like 4000px down to 800–1200px wide)
- Make sure the file size also stays under the platform’s limit
