Try emailing them to yourself as attachments.
You'll probably find the email gives you the option to reduce the photo size.

As many times as I've taken pictures on my iPhone for work and e-mail them to myself, I never really thought about it as a resizing smaller option, only getting the biggest picture to my e-mail. I use Picture Trail to host all of my albums. When you use their uploading software, software is free, it automatically reduces the size when it's uploaded. That way they use less hosting space, make sense to me.

If you upload images to Tm-Img then it will re-size the pictures automatically and you can embed the links straight into this thread.

You beat me to it Tim. tm-img.com is completely free and was set up specifically to host images for Talk Morgan. Instruction for use at http://tm-img.com/page/ifuImages up to 6MB can be uploaded and are automatically re-sized.

Here are the damage photos. The first two show the left side damage and the right side is in the 3rd. Perhaps I overreacted a bit when I wanted a new body. I doubt that the shipper or insurance company would go for that. Do you thinks it's possible to repair this without stripping the paint? looks like only the paint on the bead is affected. I'm worried that spot painting will be noticed if not immediately, it will be a few years down the road. http://tm-img.com/image/8KqWthttp://tm-img.com/image/8Kbxvhttp://tm-img.com/image/8K2C4

Both sides are eminently repairable I think. What do you want as an outcome from it all..?It's not a flippant question, but you need to be sure in your mind what you'd be happy with. My guess is that a motor repairer or bodyshop will sort that out fairly swiftly if it's simply aluminium panel work damage, and paint several layers over to make it look like new. You've had the worst part now, the shock. The repair will be a lot easier I'm sure. Good luck

I just don't want to be reminded that the car was repaired every time I'm about to step into it. At least I'll be seeing the "better" side before I get in. 😏

That's fine, I'd be the same. It's down to negotiation between you and the people paying as to where you go, and you need to see some work they've done before you hand it over maybe.
Just be reasonable and stick to the 'quality' line and you'll get it sorted ASAP I'm sure.
