There is a file size limit. Here are the specs:

Here are the various technical specifications for the forums.

FOR FORUM ATTACHEMENTS
    * Max of 4 images per post
    * 125Kb each but a total of 250Kb for all for combined
    * Max width and /or height of 800px
    * .jpg, .gif & .doc are OK

OFF SITE IMAGES
    * Inline images are OK - photobucket etc....
    * I have found that 700px wide is great to avoid horizontal scrolling.

You would need a photo editing software type of program to re-size them. I believe photo hosting sites such as Photobucket have resizing/editing tools built in as well.

Something as simple as Paint should work, or you can even download one of the freebies off the web, something like Gimp or Paint.net

I use paint.net and love it and it's free.  ;D
