If you are having problems uploading photos, it is usually due to the size of the photos. There is a limit of 1000 kB which is close to 1MB.

There are several methods to resize photos but I will cover the basic way:

If you are going to be taking pictures there is usually a file size setting directly on your camera where you can choose a smaller size and meet the 1MB restriction. However if you already have the pictures here's what you can do:

Open Microsoft Paint if you are running Windows by going to start/all programs/accessories/paint

-Click on File/Open
-Double click on the picture you are trying to resize
-Click on Image/Stretch-Skew
-Under "Stretch" change the values from 100% to something smaller like 50%
-Click on File/Save-As and save your newly resized image
-You're done!

You may have to play with that value depending on how large your pictures are but normally 50% will do it.
