We have found an easier way for you to manage and edit your photos. Picassa is still a viable option for photo management, but we wanted to share our new found photo management site, photobucket. A photobucket account is free and allows you to upload unlimited images. We hope this post simplifies and clarifies the photo uploading process.
These are the standard picture dimensions for the system. Pictures don't have to be exactly this size. If you want to scale proportionally, close enough is good enough. I recommend writing down these dimensions or committing them to memory!
Step 1: Go to photobucket.com and click Sign up.
