Maximum Picture Widths in Forums

Change resolution is the trick.

You can have a picture as big as you want but the resolution for the Internet must be 72 pixels at inch. A higher resolution is good only for printing. Our screens dont use it.

With 72 pixels at inch the maximum size of the file is no more than 200kb.

Yannis, The default is already 72, then I resize to 640 width and it's still around 900kb, then I decrease the resolution to around 32 pixels per inch and it meets the size limit but it also shrinks the picture automatically to around 250 pixels wide.
