I tried to upload some pics of my travels but it appears that the files are too big. Any suggestions on how to solve this? Thanx!

just in case, here are the limits:

Forum FAQ wrote:
The current limits on uploading pictures to albums is 1024 pixels (width) by 768 pixels (height) and total file size of 350k.
When scanning pictures in order to upload them it is advisable to set the ‘dpi’ (dots per inch) options (if available) at 72 or as near as you can. This works well for pictures that are to be displayed on a computer screen and will help keep file size down.

you can use this online tool http://www.shrinkpictures.com/ Smile

or download and install the program Easy Thumbnails which not only allows to create thumbnails but actually provides the feature to resize a pic to any required size.
