It's a pain, I have a Mac, cacman, helped me , but I still find it difficult because they all have to be converted,9Had to download a graphic convertor)

and under a certain size, I rarely try because of this.

I'm pretty sure they raised the 100kb limit. Not sure exactly what the upper limit is now, but I've put through photos in the mid-200kb range since they went to the new forum format.

IME around 200kb is the limit for file size. Image can't be any wider than 680px

They certainly get unwieldy on this forum when they get over 600-700 pixels wide, but there is no hard limit on that. In some cases, there's also some resizing that goes on here when the photo is initially displayed - you have to click through to see the full size image (click photo, then click on direct link to the full photo under the displayed image).

^^^ Understood. The images above are wider than 680 but also less than 100kb. But it appears that when you start reaching/breaking the 200kb file size, images wider than 680 are more difficult to upload. Have had images resized for the forum display but also resized for the fullsize display. Rarely is the original image I upload the one displayed in the fullsize - they are always resized smaller by the forum's system or mods.

We may have even allowed:

Question, how long does it normally take for the pic to download, a couple of seconds or a couple of minutes? Just wondering if it takes longer on this forum than it would in other applications.

Under normal circumstances, it should take less than a few seconds to display. The photos are initially displayed as PNG files, it's possible that your browser having a problem with that, so it might be worthwhile to try a different browser.

Something is not right, I even tried uploading a pic that I was able to do a month ago and it will not upload.

Thanks for the info.
