Why does it take so long to add pictures to my post?
Most residential internet connections have far greater download speeds (receiving) than they do upload speeds (sending). Pictures taken on digital cameras can be quite large and therefore take several minutes to transfer to the Posting Station. To reduce the time that it takes attaching your pictures to posts, try reducing the image dimensions to 640x480 pixels or lower. This should significantly reduce your picture's file size and speed up the transfer.
