it's kb size or photo size must be too big man. i used to get the same message.
go to a web site called http://www.imageoptimizer.net it's dead easy. just select your pic choose best quality on the drop bar and set the peramaters to 800 by 600 and click optimize. save the pic to your desktop and then put it into your report. hope this helps man :)
