Is there some reason that I cannot upload photos? I am not real computer savey but my wife says its the same way she does it in E-Bay its just not working.

Maybe too large, resize.

I will give that a try. May take awhile. Took me a week to figure out how to upload them.

If you don't have an image editor try Picassa, it's free and it's easy. If you don't have an image host try photobucket, it's free and easy too. Lot of guys use the thumbnails here but once you get used to managing your own images....it's just a breeze.

Car that burned in front of my house in early January....the driver....my neighbor....Crazy Sarah Sue Smith.....that's another story altogether.

640 X 480 seems to work everywhere...CL or ebay or here.....really nothing worse that doing all that work only to be kicked out for too large an image.

Mine say 2.47MB 3872x2592 I have all sorts of Nikon programs but I dont Know how to use them. Should I use a cheaper camera? I used my wifes E-bay nikon and I did not change anything, I just took the cap off and the photos look great. How do you make them smaller?

WAYYYYY too big. You need an image editor. Ebay may resize for her...don't know as I resize before ebay gets it.

Has nothing to do with the camera. You now have an image file in your computer and that file needs to be reduced in size by using some sort of editor. Do a search for 'Picassa' and download it to your computer, this is what you need. You can crop and resize and many other editing functions in Picassa. Once you download Picassa your images will open in Picassa when you insert your card or plug in your camera.....in other words once you set it up you will create a pathway to managing your images everytime you download to your computer.....you'll get so used to it you'll not even have to think about doing it.

I'm suggesting this only because for the novice you can not go wrong, really it's just too easy.

Having said that you may have a program that will edit an image, I take it you can view the image in your computer so what program are you using to view it with? Does it have an edit option?

Also just a hint-

Get in the habit of 'renaming' your image files and insert them into folders so you can remember where they are and can find them easily.

Your file name may start out as P1034975_5, you will never remember that and it will mean nothing to you in a list. File name should represent the image, something like, Cubtranyshift. Also when you do a search for a particular image as you inter your search info Cub------ all things Cub will begin to appear on your screen.
