pull it up in photoshop then click image then go to image size. set it at about 1000 pixels and it will proprotion itself. that should be a good size for the net.

i am trying to make it small enough to post on the site, for some reason my camera take huge pics when they are uploaded on my computer. I go right into photoshop, and change the pixels like you said on the computer, You can see it instantly change the size, but than when I go to up;oad it it say's its way too large. i think I am the only one on the site that has this problem.

alright do this. go into photoshop and click image size. change the size to 750 pixels. make it were it automatically puts in the second number of pixels. when you do that click file then save as. save it under a different name. another screen should pop up that says what quality. if that does set it at 12 and press ok then try uploading it with that new file name
