I open my photo with Paint, then go to "image" column and click on "stretch/skew." Then on the "stretch" part, i take it down to like 25% on the vertical & horizontal. Then under "image" click on "attributes." That will tell you the pixel size of the new image. Somewhere on this forum it says try to keep your files about 500 x 500. I've had mine be a little over one way or the other, and it shows up OK. Then when it is the right size, make sure to save it under a new file name. Then come to the site, start your thread and at the bottom it says Manage Files (i think), that's where you'll attach the new photo file you made. Good luck, hope to see your pics soon!
