For anyone that's interested here is a good program to resize your photos with so they aren't as large size wise when you upload them:
http://www.irfanview.com/
And it's free. I use it to resize my piccy's before putting them on Collectzing.

Cheers Vicki, very handy. You can actually resize them in the editor here, but it's a bit of a pain and hard to get the images exactly the same size (well for me anyway, maybe i'm just unco?)

Irfanview is way easier, just open the file, click the resize to what you want and voila it's done.

Or just: Right click on image > edit > Ctrl + W > enter the size you want. It don't get any simpler than that.
