The first thing you can do is to open it with e.g. PAINT.
Then you click on the button "save", and then you click again. You can also try to bring more variations into it, like "save under..." and to change the data name and so on.
Do for about ten times.
Then you check the file size again.
If this still doesn't help, then there is a simple method to cut the most wasteful aspects on the picture, and to try again.

I'm talking very seriously.

Well..Admiral..i tried what you said. Btw I had already resized the photo when you told me...anyway..the magic with the saving repetition didn't work. But thanks to it I saw the other options for not so high-quality pictures..and here I am..you can see me black-and-white :wink: a little scary, don't you think :)

So you used to participate in the old forum right? The member clubhouse? And we had a discussing about cloning people. Right? I used to know a Bulgarian girl from that forum who had the similar ID like yours. We used to exchange PMs, then her ID disappered. I never known what happened to her.... :cry:

I also want to post pictures.In my opinion, if we discuss something , such as the 7 wonders of the world( Dixie 's topic), It will be very interesting and attractive. And i tried to post some pics by " Image" tool, but it didnt work , i dont know why , maybe Josef can change " setting board" to help us?

I do not think that my returning changes your fate, Admiral. Some things stay the same..for good or not so.

Oh yes, I remember you now. Back then when Scopio was still a moderator only you and me were really active in the that forum. Not many people said anything much. Then you left and I was the only one who was active there :cry: . Gosh, it was such a lonely time. Now it's nice that you're back. Welcome back! :wink:

Hah...perhaps I will leave one day. Things are really unpredictable and noone knows what will come next. But I will take the most of the present situation, as you should as well. :P

I don't think it is a rule, maybe you just aren't doing it right? I'm not sure but maybe you should try another way. I don't think Joseph would limit you putting pictures on EC just the size of them, maybe they are too big for the site, just like you have to use small files for avatars if you are uploading them :!:
