That's correct, must be less than 2mb. I reduce mine in Picassa first and then post them using the 'Upload Image above the message box.

I would also like to know if I can send multiple pics. in one go, or must they be uploaded individually?

Hi, when in "reply to topic page" and you click on "upload an image", then click on "browse" and that will open your desktop/media file, look through and find the photo of choice and DOUBLE click on the photo and then the file name should appear in the thumbsnap box on the left, click "upload" and then wait a few seconds and it should the photo was uploaded successfully, close the box and that should be it, the reason for highlighting the double click was that I had tha same issue and that was the reason
hope it works and best of luck

So you don't have to use third party websites now? can you upload direct?

To upload more than one photo after you have uploaded the first, set the cursor below then just go to upload image and repeat as required, it pays to preview before posting though.

Easy enough to reduce image file sizes with Windows paint (default program) if you don't want to use a image hosting site wink
