The file that you have tried to attach is too big. The maximum size is 102400 bytes.

Why so I get that message when trying to attach pictures from the browser? I used the lowest quaility setting on my carmera. Stll to big. How do I fix this so I can post pictures from my hard drive straight to the topic????

Resize it through a picture program like photo editer or paint. If not email it to me and I wll.

It all depends on the resulution, colors per pixel, absolute size of the image, and file type. Try to stick with the lowest color setting possible, and crop your pics with paint, photo editor, or photoshop, or something else. Don't try to manage your images through your camera. Usually they're set up to give you the MAX resolution (best picture) and are hard to scale down to something more simple. Get the image as a file, and then start managing it...

Thanks for asking that question Reumster. I have wondered the same thing myself. I tried the suggestions, and still no luck myself. More help???

I'm using HP software, and have a photosmart 320 dig camera, ok I go to phote editor, and resize? What do I do? Change the resolution? What? Its set at 72.

What seemed to help me is just making the damn picture smaller.....smaller and smaller..sometimes not the way I wanted it to be shown....but oh well.

yes, you do want the resolution set a 72. Generally a picture that is 400 pixels x 400 will be less than a 100k.
