Welcome Dean, photos have to be resized before uploading to DSK.
This is how I do it, which I'm sure the youngens on here will find humorous.

When on DSK forum select "reply to post"
then type in subject.
Select browse button. This will take you to your files where you will need to locate your chosen folder which contains your photos you wish to attach. Could be in my documents ,my pictures. Select which ever and find the particular folder that contains your images. Select folder and then open.Choose image by right clicking on it.Left click edit.Then left click image.
Right click stretch/skew.
In the stretch window type in say 50% (horizontal)and press tab and type in 50% (vertical) Press enter and then file to name or rename that image. This reduces and saves your image to 50%. This may be o.k depending on the original image size.You can reduce size further as needed.
Once image saved and renamed, look up in folder as above directions and locate resized image and left click on it and that should do it.
If when you submit to DSK and she won't upload go through resize again and reduce further. hope that helps.

show us ya goodies.
