Photo size downgrade?

[Bubbasboat]

Since the upgrade, I see that the photo size limit is now 200,000bytes. I used to upload 1.2MB photo's regularly. Is this really the new photo standard or am I missing something?

Why do you think it is necessary to upload a 1.2MB picture to a website? Takes 5 seconds to downsize the picture.

I was simply pointing out the change! The issue is not that it is or is not necessary to upload 1.2MB photos. It was just a PITA to resize all my photo's I want to use here!

This is also an old post which had already been answered by members when the change first occurred. It's no big deal, I've already adapted to the change a week ago.

Gotcha. Do a search for "image resizer". Once you install it, all you have to do is right click and resize your picture.

Thanks for the info, I do that. Sounds easy!

If you store your photos on Imageshack or Photobucket (or Picassa), there is no such limit and you can link to the image.
