1. You can only upload JPG images or GIFS (no bmp's, use a converter tool like Paint Shop Pro if you only have bmp's)
2. You should 'crop' out anything in your images that is not needed. (example, your car is taken with a lovely mountain in the background. Crop means getting rid of the mountain, and keep just the picture of the car)
5. Usually, an image of 640x480 or 800x600 is large enough to get your point across. Use a tool like Paint Shop Pro mentioned above to 'resize' or 'resample' your images if they are too big.
