I have tried to post a couple for sale posts and just today a ? about my C500 in the aero car section. I tried to attach a pic, it said the file was to large and reverted me back to the posting page. I tried to post without a pic and it won't let me. It says the thread is already posted, "You already submitted this post! You might have accidently double clicked, or tried to refresh." but when I look for the thread online, as has happened with my other for sale posts. nothing is there? Can you help me understand what I am doing wrong?? Or is there a glitch?

pics have to be less than 200kb. Downsize them to about 850 wide and save at a percentage of quality to get below 200kb

I had the same problem when posting with a large pic.  It comes back to the same post input page and then when I try to repost it says that it is already posted.  I've learned to just highlight the text of the old post, right click and "copy".  Cancel that post and start another.  Right click and "paste".   It works, I don't know why the repost does not.

On picture size.  If using windows 7 or newer you should have a program called "Windows Live Photo Gallery".  Just fire it up, find your pic and then right click on the picture.  Choose "resize" on the dropdown menu, choose a size (maybe 600BPI) and ok.  Then check the size of the file produced, if it's less than 200KB you are good to go, if not then erase the new file and try again with a smaller BPI till you get something that works.  The new file will also automatically have a long name that reduces the "duplicate file name" error.
