METHOD OF SHARING IMAGE BASED FILES BETWEEN A GROUP OF COMMUNICATION DEVICES
Methods and associated mobile devices are disclosed for sharing an image based file between a group of communication devices. The image based file is scaled based on a display capacity of the devices within the group. The group of communication devices including a sending mobile communications device. The method includes: accessing from a memory of the sending mobile communication device a display capacity of each of the devices in the group, determining whether the resolution of the image based file exceeds an image resolution threshold based on the display capacity of the devices in the group, and if so scaling the image based file to within the image resolution threshold, and sending the image based file from the sending mobile communication device to one or more receiving communication devices in the group.
