It's not so much the dimensions of the picture, but the "size" of the file.

If it's bigger than 300kb then it won't get uploaded (which is a bit of a relief really, becasue it could take some people 30 seconds for people to see such an image).

It's usually possible to "save for web" (or a similar option) or apply a "compression setting" to images to make them quite a bit more lean.

In regards to the thread title, i think that the only stupid question is the one never asked.  ;D

For the record, this is my g-grandmother Mary Ann Anyon, born Liverpool 1859, died Feilding 1835.

Ummmm did you mean to write that she died in 1935?
