I've taken some really good photos of my 8 and 3 and when I try and upload them I get a warning saying that they photo size is too big.
If the modarators read this message can you please allow a little bit extra space. I've got some really nice photos I'd like to share.
Thanks.

They are very high quality pics. I took them that way to get the highest picture quality.

Well how big are you talking? You have to realize that it costs money to send every MB. Money that the Administrator here has to pay for. So if 1000 people view your picture, and it's 2MB in size, that's 2GB of file transfer. On just one picture.
I don't know what the limit here is. But you can easily shrink even a good photo to less than 500K in size and it won't look much different than a high-res image. If people want bigger you can just email it to them.

That was the first thing I did. Find another host. They all have POP up ads and it was unbelieveable how the windows were popping up here and there.
Can you recommend a good host.

you need photoshop or photshop elements if you don't want to pay much. That program is great for compressing images for the net.

just as long as where you link the images from, the RX8club viewers still don't have to view the original files at that size. If you have a crapload of images that are all over 2+ MB each, it sure is going to take a long time to load them all over the web.
