Unable to upload photos of my Contreras

Well, I tried to upload photos of my 1970 Contreras for sale, but as I said, I'm tech challenged. I don't know an I-Pod from a peapod, or an I-Mac from a Big Mac. The computer kept saying "FILE IS TOO LARGE." How do I make it smaller. I tried doing a Farruca around the edges of the icon on my desktop to make it smaller, but that didn't work, and now I need a new monitor. If any tech guys out there can tell me how to make these files smaller, I would appreciate it.

P.C,

Perhaps it would be easier just emailing the original photos to someone here who has Photo manipulation software.
They can then resize them for you and return them.

Can anyone please help PC out here?

cheers,

Ron

assuming you have XP, right click on image on your computer and find "resize"
which will give your 4 choices. Check new size by holding mouse pointer over new pic and it will give you size in bytes. Quick and dirty maybe. Also your camera software should have resizing feature.

Or you might try here. .
