I don't want to discourage anyone from posting pics, but I really want to try to stress how important picture size is. When pics are oversized it poses two problems:
1. It breaks up the page and makes it difficult to navigate.
2. It eats up a lot of bandwidth and bandwidth costs money.
I've just changed the maximum photo size for attachments to 800x600, but to be honest, the best size for posting attachments is around 550 pixels in width. Most graphic programs can resize photos quite easily. There are great freeware and shareware programs available like Paint Shop Pro and ACDSee which can resize photos with ease.
If anyone needs some tips or help with programs, please don't hesitate to private message me, or email me at john@usg-online.com
