    So to keep it simple, if you want to use the XRV gallery you can resize your pics a bit smaller and you should find that they will work. If you don't have a resize program then try google as there's lots of online image resizing websites about.
    There is some really good free software that will resize pictures out there. For windows users there are a couple of free tools that will do the job from within windows explorer. For microsoft XP fans we have Microsoft's Resize digital pictures quickly

    My favourite is Free Image Resize Software Import organize resize photos- VSO which works in XP, Vista and Windows 7

    Whealie has also come up with this gem for Windows or Mac users

    Well it now seems to work, seems to take forever to upload one picture at a time but working at last

    Cheers Kymmy

    You can try uploading more (even in a zip file) but you've gotta remember that the forum software is behind camera technology and is designed to cope with 1-2MP pictures and not 10MP
