    There's details in the FAQ forum

    I suspect you're trying to upload a picture from your PC. Uploads are limited to very small pictures to save bandwidth for the site owner.
    The trick is to upload the pic either to your webspace allocated by your internet provider or to an image hosting site such as http://imageshack.us/ then using the External Image URL to give the web address of the picture.

    See the FAQ forum for more detailed explanations.
