Photos Invalid??

Postby RichL001 » Mon Jul 19, 2010 10:51 am

Hi everyone

tried to put some photos of jeeves on today, but when i chose the photo that i wanted and clicked add file it told me the file was invalid?

I think it could be the size of the photos because they are massive!!, my camera seems to take them in a huge size and im not sure how to make them smaller!

Any suggestions are much appreciated!

They are Jpeg images, but its the file size, i cant seem to get them smaller than 15kb even though the resolution is 150 x 150 pixels

Ok, just post what you have here as an img or attachment (not avatar) and I'll shrink it for you and post back so you can upload.
