Hi Kathy ... when you click on the "upload photo" link in photopost, if you scroll down the resulting page near the bottom on the left hand side, you will see a section called "user file limits". It will tell you how much disk space the webmaster has allowed your account (and most posters), how much has been used, and how much is left.
As far as the "size" of your photo(s), prior to uploading, what ever software you may be using to view your pictures should allow you the opportunity to resize the photo. My camera produces a 9 x 6 inch photo, which is almost a full page size photo! I resize mine down to 5 x 3, and when I save the photo (save as...), I save it as a .jpg file, and my software will ask me if I want to use a low compression (not much), medium compression (more compression, smaller number of kilobytes), or high compression (greatest compression, smallest file size). I normally go with a medium compression or high compression. If I really want to have a small file size, I can select "publish to web"which really compresses the file. I use Adobe Photoshop elements.
Bottom line, resize your photos to a smaller size, save the new photo using "file ---save as ----" command, and if your software will let you select from a range of compressions, chose the higher one and that will give you a smaller file size, and more picture capability.
Hope it helps.
