use an image editor like photoshop or whatever is available to compress the file size down, and to resize its dimensions. Might want to make a copy or save it under a different name in case you dont want to overwrite the original photos.

If the file is too large you will have to reduce the size file size. The quickest and easiest way to do this is to recuce the size of the image.

You will need some image editing software to do this. If you don't have anything like that installed on your computer you can always use mspaint.

Open the picture in mspaint and choose Image -> Stretch/Sqew.

Then you can enter percentages to stretch the horizontal and the vertical sizes of the image. Putting 50% for the width and height will reduce the image by half. But putting anything under 100% will reduce the size of the image.

Then save the image to your hard drive as a jpeg. Play around with different sizes of image until you create one that is small enough to post on here.

Hope that helps!
