Vette(s): 1979, 350sb, as my kids affectionately call it "shit brown" Corvette purchased in 1996. 84,000+ miles. Not a show car, but I love her just the same.

I had the same problem when I first tried to post a picture for my signature. Save your picture to any photo software and simply reduce the size until it is about 2"x3". Make sure you save it to a JPEG format. Reload it into your personal page and make a preview post to see how it loads on your screen. If it is still too big, go back and reduce some more. It takes a little getting used to, but if you work at it you'll eventually get it.

Mark,
Yes...it's too big!
Like the post above suggests, bring it into any photo editor, like Microsoft Photo Editor. The first thing you should do, is Crop it, so it only shows the Vette, not the background. Then, if that didn't make it small enough, you can resize the image.
If you don't know how to do this, or have trouble, let me know, and I'll do it for you.
