The image size is probably too large.

It is easier to use a free photo sharing site such as photobucket.

If you open the picture in Windows Live Photo Gallery, or pretty much any photo software, it will give you an option to resize the picture.
In Windows Live P G, click on the Edit tab and at the top there are various options including Resize ( it will be greyed out until you click the picture you want to work on).. Choose the 640 size and save it. When you go to upload it it should with any luck simply go ( be warned you do ahve to wait a little while for the board to respond though).
