I am just curious. It seems that my photo size is too large for this group but I am able to upload to the share-art group which accepts larger size photo.

Your photos need to be no greater than 1.5 MB or they won't load, and also the format (file type) must be either a GIF or JPEG. The name of the file should end in ".gif" or ".jpg" - if it says something else, it won't work.

I found that I could open a photo in Windows Paint, resize it - usually 75% works - then save the new smaller version by a different name so you don't lose the original version.

Sometimes if the site is very active or your connection is slow, or if you are trying to add 5 photos at once, it can take a long time.

Here is where you will find some useful info on photos from the Help pages here at DS:

Hope this helps. If you still have questions, let me know, and I will try to help.
