You can't attach more than one pic.

what you do is upload the pic to the net and then use the [ img ] url here [ /img ] with NO spacing.

you have to find a site to upload your pics to ,you can't use geocities, they don't allow direct linking.

copy and paste the url of the pic, then in a reply [ img ] paste url here [ /img ] no spaces.

Man! I am having the same problem and I am about to pull my hair out. Every photo I select it tells me that the file size is too big. I am using the "attach file" and I can't figure out how to downsize my pics.

did you go to Paint, open the file, click ctrl+w and 40%, maybe try 30%, make sure there is no extra white space around the pic, and resave as a diff file name and jpg file.
