Uploading photos to the TP gallery or a forum

[Badger UK]

Is it me? Have I got the wrong end of the stick when it comes to uploading images to the TP site?

I use Picasa to store my on-line photos and I understand that Google won't allow TP to link pictures directly from there. So I need to first load my images on to the TP gallery and create a link from there to the forums. All fair enough.

But....

I see that there is a 200kb limit, which is fine, so I create images that are less than this to be told by a dialogue box that the images are too wide. Sometimes the photos seem to make and sometimes they don't. It all seems very hit and miss to me and as I'm sure it isn't hit and miss can you...

Please, please, please, please fix it for me to know what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks folks.

just as you say they have to be under 200kb and also 800 pix at the widest side.Hope this helps

Ahh. I didn't know about the 800 pixels wide. That's my problem. OK. I should be OK now. Thanks
