Hey guys, I just bought an 8 mega camera, and everytime I try to upload a pic it says I have to reduce the size. Can some one please help me with this. What do I do?
Thanks

Keep in mind the file size needs to be less than 60k, and the picture needs to be no bigger than 700X525.

Easiest way is to use a free image hosting site.

A lot of us use www.photobucket.com

Just upload your photos, then post the imbedded link. That way you do not load this forum down, and you can post as high of a resolution as you need.

There are options within photobucket to automatically resize your photos for website use (I would suggest no bigger than 800x600)

Yes, but please, if it's a large photo, just give the link rather than embedding it.
Sometimes, a thread gets so "heavy" it gets skipped.
