When I looked at the attachments button, I read it as 19 KB for every file type, and thought that was too small.
Now I looked again, I see it is 97.7 KB, for jpg, which should sufficient, as you say. I'll have to try it that way, with a little resizing it shouldn't be bad.
...When writing the post click on Go Advanced...
What I do is:
> Edit all pictures I intend to post by cropping and compressing them (to less than 100KB) in a picture editing program, I use PhotoShop Elements, there are many others out there
.
Interesting. I have never even seen the quick reply feature. I have always used the "Post Reply" button just below the last post on the left side.
What is the difference bewteen a regular post reply and a quick reply?

When I first started posting, I kept getting teeny pictures by resizing, little better than thumbnails.
Later on, I found a button in Photoshop called "save for web" and that created a jpg big enough and usually small enough in file size. The trade off was in resolution but its sufficient for computer screens.
I look forward to seeing your build!
If you don't have Photoshop, then IrfanView is a great free program for making simple adjustments (such as resizing) to images.

I use picasa, and I synchronize my build album to web. Then I get the html embed code. I've written a simple program in Qt4, which given the html embed code converts it to forum embed code. Then I paste the forum embed code here. Voila!
