Default Stupid Question!

How can I download a pic of my bike onto this site. I have tried 5 different pics and the site tells me "image too large!"

Hi doug. Where are you uploading to - your profile or the photo gallery? If you're trying to upload a photo to use as an avatar then they need to be quite small, about 140x140 pixels (or thereabouts). In the gallery, I put some up at around 800x600 with no problem.

Good luck.

Most decent graphics/photo editing (paintshop, photoshop etc) software will resize pictures - I use Serif Photoplus. If you have a digital camera, then they usually come with software which will do the job for you. If not, then there's plenty of free software available for download or on magazine coverdiscs. Try googling for "free graphics software" and see what that comes up with.
