AND a restriction of a individual size of, (ready for this guys?) 2048KB... So maybe I am just not seeing this 2mb limit you guys are talking about, but never been a problem before,

Yep as PL1 mentioned there are 1024KB in 1 MB so a limit of 2048KB would be 2MB per picture - overall 5120 KB or 5MB total per post and limit of a maximum of 8 pictures per post even if they are less than the 5120KB (5MB) limit total - figure computer systems are based on binary - so units are powers of 2 so 1000 Bytes would fit more efficiently in 1024 unit sets rather than just wasting the extra 24 units of space so a KB was designed as 1024 Bytes and for the same reason a MB would be 1024 KB

My new favorite Jenn quote of all time. Maybe you arent PBJ after all. Take your pictures down to a reasonable resolution and you should be golden.

Just upload them to imgur and link.
2048KB = 2MB
:cheers:

Jenns guides to resizing, uploading and posting pics. Cos I got nuffink to do at work. :-\
To resize image to well under 2MB
1. Open image in Paint (this works in Vista and upwards)
2. Click on Resize button and resize using percentage until the image can be fully seen at 100% sizing on your desktop, that means no scrolling around to see the full image ya?
3. Save re-sized image.
To post image using preferred BYOAC approach:
1. Create a reply in the ‘NOT A PROJECT - Thread for Posting Images to Link in our project threads’ thread.
2. Click on Attachments and other options.
3. Click on Attach\ Choose File and browse to the image file on your pc
Example: Kip.jpg (only 428KB or less 0.5 of a Megabyte).
4. Post your reply in the NOT A PROJECT thread.
5. Right click on the image and choose ‘copy image URL’
6. Create a reply in ‘Jennifers upload test #1’ thread.
7. Type some guff.
8. Click ‘Insert Image button’ from the row of buttons above your post
9. Paste the URL you copied in between link brackets.
10. Press preview to make sure your post and linked image all look sweet.
11. Press Post and voila! A correctly sized image:
12. Enjoy the pic of my dog Kip as a Bubby. He’s still a Bubby now, only just a much larger Bubby.
Now you have no excuse.
P.S. I don't use this approach as I prefer to maintain my images in either Dropbox or other imaging hosting site as per PBJs mention. But the linking method is just the same.

Cute puppy!!!, Something good came of this thread ;)... The Imugr, and dropbox thing, Ya not going to happen, that would require Jennifer to admit shes to stupid to understand how to use them, However the paint , I did look at that, and seems to share similar traits with P/S, so that seems to be a viable option.....THX.
