Hey, I figured if P-man still had some places open, I'd upload the required pics on the AF member gallery, however, it says my image is too large. How do I make it smaller. Please respond with your reply, I'd really like to know. Thanks.

In P-man's thread it lists you as entered so you probably got your answer, however, its not posted here so even if you did I'll post in case anyone else is wondering.
It's 640 x 480 like it says in the sticky up top, however even if it's that size, the file may be too large for AF. Since I use photoshop to resize my pictures, etc, I am able to tell it at what quality I want the pictured stored. I usually store it at about 5 or 6, in the middle of the quality spectrum. This makes a 640 x 480 or so picture small enough in kilobites to be allowed on AF's server, and to me it looks the same. Look around in your software, it may have a similar function.
Hope this helps, though my guess is I'm too late.

Yeah, I did something like that. I was able to enter, I fiddled around with my software to get it to 640x480, but had to go 500x something to make it fit on AF's server. Thanks for your reply, it is appreciated, I'l start using AF's upload server, seeing as CARdomain takes so long.
