If your pic is too big, email it to yourself...the email program will resize it for you....copy that pic onto your desktop....then when you "manage attachments" with the paperclip icon, browse to these smaller photos and uploat them.....
It's so great that you found the love of your life before Valentine's day. Graphite is a fantastic colour that you will be able to use for years to come.
find out the size of your pictures, if emailing is not possible, you can open with paint, then image skew ... to 70% or less until u reach the desired size allowed.
hope you can eventually post pics! Are u on a Mac or Windows? I'm on a Mac and I've found that Safari often has trouble letting me upload pictures on this site (just stalls when I try to upload).If I switch to using Mozilla Firefox it lets me upload pics no problem. So you may want to try switching browsers if you're having problems...
