I've tried to download some photos to this site but they say that they're too big. How can i solve this problem???

I also had this problem. You will need to resize the photos on your computer using a photoshop type program. If you don't have one and you are using windows, Paint will also work.

You should use a photo storing site such as www.flickr.com, www.picasaweb.com, www.dropshots.com, www.photobucket.com, www.keepandshare.com, etc and then link to the images from your posts.

Create an account on photobucket.com or imageshack.com. Uploaad your photos. Then when you determine which photos on that account that you want to post on thefret.net then copy the 'direct link' url to the photo. Click on the yellow square on the 'post reply' menu bar and paste your url in the window provided.

An excellent, free image viewer/editor app is IrfanView (http://www.irfanview.com/).
It is super easy to resize and/or convert image file types. I use it on everything from 80x80 avatars to images off the Canon.

Go to photo bucket - create an account - click 'upload photos' - point upload toward the pictures on your computer - select the ones you want ' click 'upload' or 'open'.
