Watch directory
Which directory on your device to watch for new photographs being saved. This should be set to the directory on your device where your camera saves photographs - usually /sdcard/DCIM/subdirectory (where subdirectory is the only subfolder in the DCIM folder - usually called "Camera", "100ANDRO" or similar, depending on which version of Android you're running and who produced your mobile device).
Gandhicam tries to autodetect the correct folder when it's installed, but if it can't (or if it still doesn't detect and upload photos when you take them) try downloading a file browser app like ES File Explorer from the App Market, looking around your device's storage until you find the camera-images folder and changing this setting to match that folder's path. Because Android is based on Linux, remember to use forward slashes ("/") rather than back-slashes ("\"), and if the folder is on the SD card remember to include that (usually /sdcard/) at the beginning of the folder's path.
Resize photos
By default most android devices take photographs at ridiculously high resolution (2048x1536), which leads to huge files which take a long time to upload (especially if you're connected over 3G, rather than wi-fi). For this reason it's often worth resizing images before they're uploaded - even a small reduction in size usually leads to many times faster uploads. For this reason Gandhicam defaults to resizing photos to 320x240, but using this option you can change this if you wish.
Don't worry - if you select a size to reload photographs to Gandhicam will resize and upload a copy of your file - the original file on your device stays unchanged, at full quality.
