Photo too large?

[Woodlvr]

I am trying to post a picture of a Holiday pen but when I try to upload it I am told that it is too large. It says the picture can only be 90kb(?). So I cropped my picture and tried to take the picture as close as I coule with only the pen in the picture, to no avail it did not work. Does any one have any suggestions? I have read through some of the threads but did not find out anything to help. Thank you.

Try the picture resizer here. http://tinyurl.com/2meyw
It's free and works great.

Try reducing the width of the picture so it's about 640 pixels wide. That's usually sufficient to bring the file to less than 90K.

Thank you Jim and Lou.[]

Lower the pixels on your camera or scanner or run it threw a Photoshop or similar type program. If you go by inches, about 6 or 7 will work for the longest dimension. That should put it in the 640 pix range. Good luck.
