When I try to put a picture on it says it took too long or my pic was too big. How do I make it smaller anyone? :'(

Hi,

If you resize them to 640*480, that is about the best size - the server software should resize them for you, but I'm guessing that your file size was very (very) large?

Could I ask how big the file you tries to upload was? Both in pixels, and in kb/mb?

Cheers

Dan

That is quite big!

If you use windows XP, try this powertoy,

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx

It adds right click functionality to windows, right click a photo and resize it automatically.

Very quick, very easy!

I'll rephrase that lad,
Is that the 'repositry' in the corner?

Mac,
If you take offence at being called 'lad', you're not from Yorkshire,
Right?

That's to be one of the tidiest plots I've seen!

By the way, surely even in Yorkshire women prefer not to be called lad?
