i can't see the village for the trees :P

Hassan II mosque in Casablanca, Morocco

Dangit!!!! :angry: I keep making the pic smaller and smaller and it just won't freakin' upload! :ranting:

is it a bmp file extension? if so, use something like mspaint to convert it to a jpg, which will result in a much smaller file sizewise.

Try uploading it in photobucket, which will automatically resize it to a decent level for most message boards.

are you trying to upload it to here? it could be you can't, as you have to periodically clean out your attachments on this site. you have only so much room for that.

oh ok, i was about to dig out a magnifying glass to see if i could see anything other than countryside :P
