    I had this problem when saving out of photoshop for some reason. It always said it was to big to upload even though I had the correct pixel dimensions and below the maximum file size. So now I usually do the cropping and resizing in photoshop and then re-save it with another program. (I’m on a Mac, so I use Preview. If you’re on a PC I’m sure there is something in the OS that can do the same.)

    Like Nicola said though, Rob should be able to sort it out for you if you’re still having problems.

    I used Photobucket, because my pix were always pixillated.
    Try saying that after a few beers.
    Love….Jill

    I uploaded my picture today and I just resized using photoshop but if you are not comfortable using this software go to

    http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/down … rtoys.mspx

    and download the image resizer tool this will let you right click on the image and using the advanced button resize the image to one that is acceptable by UKSignboards.

    hopefully this helps

    Yeah, sorry for the hijacking Kevin. Definitely enjoy the sun and mojitos while you’re there!

    There weren’t any pierogies nor IC, but there was the Hokey Pokey and the Chicken dance. We had plenty of other booze though. 😎
