I have tried to diplay a photo of my bow for sale but it keeps saying the file is to big. How do you overcome this.

I have tried changing the file type from jpg to jpeg etc and also cropping,
is there any other way to do this. Any help appreciated.

What program are you using?

In export preview or something similar, that should be a slider bar for the image quality. make it low.

Open the f*cker in MS Paint (Start>Program->Accessories->Paint), hit Ctrl-W, then input something like 50%/50% for Height and Width, then Alt-File-Save As.

Does Paint save as jpegs?

Anyway, the upload limit may be low on the forum. You could try uploading them to Imageshack or somewhere like that and link to it.

Think so nowdays. Most modern browsers render BMP/PNG images anyway.

Reduce the file size and increase jpeg compression in your favourite image editor.
