 From our Forum Rules section.

2. Image Posting
You may add an image to a post as long as it complies to the rules below.

The picture must not be larger than 450x450 pixels. This is to cater for people with lower
resolutions and to avoid members having to scroll horizontally to read the post, which is against
the TOS. The attachment must not be larger than 100kb in filesize.

You can use the image tags to link an image from another website.
eg: [*IMG]http*://theURLaddress.jpg[/IMG] This will paste the image in your post.
Please do not include the asterisks

Or you can use the URL tags
eg: [*URL=http*://theURLaddress]Click Here[/URL] to open a new window to view the image.
There is no size limit for using the URL tags linking to another website.
Please do not include the asterisks

You may also use Zoo Admins attachment feature. This feature is restricted by file-size. There is
a file attachment box under your post, just click Browse to locate the file on your hard drive and
then Submit The picture will then be added to your post providing it is within the specified file
limit as indicated..

Other Files
you may add other file types to your post if relevant . Allowed file types are .txt, .doc, .xls and .zip.
This feature is restricted by file-size. Follow the same procedure as for attaching an image.

Failure to comply with the image/file posting rules will result in the immediate removal of your
privilege to attach images/files and a warning.

Any questions please contact a Moderator

 Bah! I can't lower the file to less then 100kb! How can I lower the size..?

 You can use the basic Paint program that comes with windows to resize it Snow Leopard. Open
your screen shot in Paint and and resize it with the corner Icon at the corner edge of your shot
and save the new size. You can then check for file size in windows explorer.

 You can also use Image>Stretch/Skew and change the values from 100 to a lower value such as
75 or 70 depending on what monitor resolution you use .. this is a percentage change and will
reduce the overall size of your screenshot. Somewhere around 75% usually works well for me

 the system file resulution needs to be 450x450 pixels the curent picture you have posted is
800x600 so i would have to say that isnt accetaple since it would take to long to download for our
users on phone line modems

 Well ,do you know where you installed your Zoo Tycoon game? Just go to that folder and there
should be a folder called "screenshots" all your screenshots should be there.

Yes, there is no problem with this.  That is one of the neat things about Zoo Tycoon, and adds to an already incredibly fun game!
