TexasBlues Posted January 18, 2005 Author Share Posted January 18, 2005 oh well... i still cant get any of my pix to upload... any suggestions? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grant Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Hi Tex, Your picture may be too big. They have to be less than 80kb. Try resizing and making the longest size 600 pixels, then it should upload OK. B) GM Quote Link to post Share on other sites
