Interesting, I took these with my cell phone. Usually I use my camera. I will look into this. Thanks.

On my lap top I always have to hit edit, size, and bring down to 1012 pixels.

No problem here. Since they implemented an image re-sizer over a year ago I regularly upload unmodified 4 meg pictures. The FTE system automatically re-sizes them so they fit the page. I used to have to cut the size down to 1024 pixel width.

Here is a 6.4 meg picture:

I'm using the latest version of Safari on a Mac Pro.

Maybe if the server is busy they limit the number of photos at certain times? Fomoko1?

Thanks for the info. It appears that pics loaded from my comp, via my camera work well. Picks loaded from my phone not so much. I don't know how to resize off my phone.

The point is that you should not have to resize them. It might have something to do with the way FTE stores the draft before you click submit. They probably use your device's memory. Since you have more memory on your computer than your phone the draft can take more pictures. Just my guess.
