How do I upload an image  :-? :-? :-?

I tried making it a Jpg, but what I really dont understand is why they keep saying all of my files are too big, when most of yours are more detailed

If anyone can help, then thankyou

Come and visit the Studio and look in the tutorial library, there will be a  tutorial for using Irfanview, which is software that allows you to resize and save so that it is under 100kb.

PS: ThankYou

I do it with PhotoShop CS2.

Better result!

Thats the best I could do under 100k, is there a better way and can I make it bigger and still be clear like it is now?

When I try to make it bigger it comes out like crap, how can u make it clear, while big, while still under 100k?

I didnt make it this small, just I dont know how to make it bigger and stay clear

Ok get yourself Irfanview, its free, then take a look at the tutorial thats available at the studioV board.

I do it like this:

-Open a new document.
-Paste the screenshot into it.
-Save it as bitmap (*.BMP)
-Then size the pic (you know the rules in here )
-Save it again.
-Now you should save it as a JPG, now set the size at about 100K

That's how I do it, and it usually works fine.

Hope this helps a little....

ok thanks

Yeah, you saved it as a bitmap (.bmp). That way, you can't make the images any larger without going over the 100K limit. It's better to save in .jpg (or .jpeg). That way you can make the image larger and still be under 100K.

jist open the poto in paint and save it as a jpg
