Thanks. I will play around with it. It just took me by surprise that 88K was considered too big a file in today's world.


>>I finally got around to uploading a picture, or should I say trying to. The photo was taken by the built in camera on my new iMac. When I try to upload it to the UT, though, it rejects it, saying I'm too ugly. No, it doesn't say I'm too ugly. It says the file is "bigger than expected." It's 88K, which doesn't seem that big to me.

>At 24 bits (3 bytes) per pixel (full colour) a 90x117 uncompressed bitmap would be 90x117x3 = 31,590 bytes. A compressed .JPG will typically be a lot smaller than that.
