    You need to resize it down some either by using settings on the camera (if digital) or with an editing program. If you have Windows you can use MS Paint if you don't have any other photo edit program.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Even though I use an early digital camera with only 2.2 Megapixels (Canon 220) I have to resize the pictures for the Forum. What I usually do is bring the picture up using the PAINT progam and reduce the height and width by 50% each and that reduces the size to 1/4 the original size and easily fits into the Forum, although you have to save the reduced picture under a new name. I would think you might have to add a leaf to the front spring for the new elephant motor?
