Nice shot (below) NanaSue! Just be careful of your file size. Your original picture was 1373.1kb. At that size you'll use up your 4 MB quota in 3 pictures.

When properly prepared most pictures like yours should be 200 to 400 kb. It looks like you may have uploaded the raw, uncompressed image from your digital camera. Next time try using an image editor and reduce it to 1024 X 768 or 1600 X 1200 at the most. This will reduce the image to a better size and also compress it. There are some tips on image editors here. I now use GIMP. It's free!
