I get the following come up below i both Firefox & IE even after turning off the firewall.
Problem my end or the sites?

"The connection was reset.
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

testing ...

How do i do that?:o
Very new to this photo game!:o
And the pictures are well worth the help!:D
 
Uplaod your photo's to something like Photobucket, then use the [img} tag to post them on the forum.
I had a similar problem before trying to upload big photo's to the forum. Security cert kept expiring.

Or you can use an online tool to resize your photo's, like the one in the link below.

It says in the upload attachments windows the max file size is 200kb's. ;)

Upload to http://imgur.com/ if their big.
 
I use a freebie program called Irfanview which is very useful for all sorts of photoediting.

Resiziing pictures is very simple - even I can do it. :D

Yeah me too if its just a quick edit/resize. CTRL+R.
 
The forum software should be able to resize most images to under the limit, but it's not always reliable with large files. Give it a whirl with a <200KB image and see if that does the trick, if not, I'll take a look at the server logs and see if it's giving a problem at this end :).
