Yes, we can't take arbitrarily large photos, as we would fill up the disk space for the site. As spongebue says, you can make the photo smaller with the windows file viewer. Or, google for "resize pictures online". Or, you can just choose to download the "medium" size photo from flikr.

The "incorrect" file type means you don't have a file extension on the file, like filename.jpg, or filename.png, or filename.gif. You can rename the file yourself on your PC before you upload it.

I'm not getting the "select files" window. I'm not even sure if I'm using the right editor button............help
