Ok so I dont know what I am doing wrong. I have edited my photos to make them smaller. They are all under 400 pixels for height and length. but when I put them up they are still huge. I used 2 different photo editing piant and picasa and uploaded them to photo bucket. can anyone tell me when I am doing wrong? no matter how small I make them they still are the same size

Have you looked at your Photobucket upload options? When you go to the "Upload to Photobucket" page, you should see "Customize your upload options" in blue right below the "Share to Facebook, Twitter, etc." options. Click on that, and you should get a pop-up box which allows you to set the Web size at 640 x 480 or 320 x 240.

To decrease the file size using Paint, Picasa, etc., you can reduce the DPI (dots per inch). One really easy-to-use free program for resizing is www.irfanview.com
