You can do this by resizing the image. If it is high resolution like mine which is 10 megapixels or something then resizing using a free photo program such as Paint.NET which you can get from: www.getpaint.net/ Once you have downloaded it and installed it. Open the image in the program and then select the "Image" option THEN "resize". Change the width or height to be under 1000 pixels, so around 800 pixels width will do fine. Then save the file and upload it on myLot. I hope you can upload it then.

Hey, Well I use Photoshop to actually re size my images. Although it may be expensive, I highly recommend you to get your hands on it. Get like an education version from your school or something, it is much cheaper. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Well, for me, I use Irfan view, its a free photo viewer and alows the user to sort there pictures out and resizing. I generally use this cause I have memorized the shortcuts for the various functions, such as its just ctrl+r and you get to resize the picture, select from the set of size ratios or set something you want. also just presing the 'r' or 'l' key one can rotate the photo left or right and then just press ctrl+s to save. DONE

Gloamglozer has the right idea. I use Photoshop or Xara, but they aren't free.
