    What to do: Put ur mouse on the sides of ur picture, a double arrow will appear.After it appears , click wear it is, and it shall make ur picture thiner, if u want to make it shorter do the same thing, except put ur mouse on the top and bottom.-darkmagiciangrl(as known):cool:

    You need a program that lets you edit the picture. Try searching for some freeware paint programs and change it with them.

    Dmg seemed to have been talking about the Crop tool!

    Maybe the picture is just really big, like 3000 x 2500 pixels. Try getting it to less than 800 pixels on each side. Then save it as a jpeg file (if it asks for a compression rate, put it close to maximum quality but not all the way, maybe 80-90%).
