Is there an easy way to resize, or scale down images for the picture post section? That 100KB limit is pretty small.

Microsoft Office Picture Manager. You can resize by percentage until the picture is under 100k.

Tried that (thanks for the help btw), and still got the error message. WTF on the 100KB restraint? Is this to accomodate dial-up users or what?

Finally figured out how to do it. That Photoshop help function can be, well, helpful if you let it. The 100KB size limitation is kind of ridiculous though.

RE #2 & 8

If you are using photoshop, no need to downsize to a piddly 640x480, you can still submit a photo with larger dimensions by going to the save menu and choosing "Save for web" and then picking "JPEG Medium" or "JPEG Low" when in the save for web interface. You can also resize the photo there. If you look towards the lower left corner of the save for web interface, you will see the estimated size of the file after saving - usually this esimation is accurate to within 1kb or less of the final size.
