I just don't have an answer yet on that. These are the issues with me not being an IT guy...

Jim,
I've been advised that we currently have a 500kb limit per photo. That can be increased, but it adds up towards the storage we pay for. If 500 kb is indeed our current limit, then what size would make it easier for you?? Any idea what the current size is of what you're trying to post? There should be simple software to alter the file size if you want to do that.

Hey Nick,

I have a variety of tools to adjust the file size. But 500 is quit small. Next time I'll pay close attention to when adjusting file size so I can make a suggestion. Thanks.

Jim,
I checked the history regarding file size. In the early days and into 2010 and 2011, the file sizes were up to 2000kb. I'm not sure when it was lowered. See if you can play with it a bit. I can increase it to 750. I'll also check regarding increasing our storage. We are not near to exceeding it, but are 2/3 of the way there. Anyone else please chime in if you wish.

Jim look at the pictures in the what are you listening to now thread, the larger ones are only 640x640 pixels. They are more than large enough and detailed enough for on screen viewing and the file sizes are around 175k. 500 k may be small if you are shooting with a high resolution camera, but we are not looking for gallery quality archival prints here,  just something we can see on a computer monitor. Whenever I shoot pics for posting here I dial back the camera's resolution setting to the lowest I can get and I have never had a problem of them looking poor online.

Try resizing them to something in the area of 640x640 and you should have no problems posting them up.

Nice pics  Your cabinet guy does very nice work

[jimbones]

 Did the tops myself, the cabinet guy was too busy for my small. Project

[richidoo]

Those look great Jim! I bet you can't wait to hear them!

[jimbones]

Well, it's been a long road partly because of my job and partly because my cabinetmaker screwed me over. I gave him plans in first week of march and I was lucky to get the H Frames so I pulled the toppers away from him after I waited months for them and he never got started. So here I am. But I am in no rush I don't have to answer to anyone but me lol!

The H frames and amps are completely wired. I just have to install the No Rez and put fabric on the grills.
This weekend I will finish the bases for the toppers and the XO boards (WO components). I have parts for XO kitted. I'll need to order real binding posts and some hi-end wire. I am hoping to light it up in September.
