Hi Charlie,
You don't want the scan to be wider than 900 pixels. It can be as long as you need it.
Edit: If it just gives you two numbers like 1200x1200 or something, the first number is the width.

If you try to post an oversize image you will get an error and it will tell you the maximum pixels. I suggest scan it a a typical solution 100 dpi (for letter size) then resize.

That's a question for the webmaster...
We need to reduce our images down prior to submitting.
Many websites (including Facebook and my model car boards) will accept anything and reduce the photo down to size as part of the process. Can this site be programmed to do that?

I am very confident that our moderator, Al (angore) has the skill to resize images if he really sees a need for it.

@Tom(BenFranklin1902),
Since the enhancement that I put in about a year ago, when we made the changes to handle small screens (phones etc) as well as large screens, we have been able to handle pretty large images. I think the system will allow the image upload to take files up to 850KB, which is fairly large for a file that you want to display on a web page. The tool that I use then shrinks the image so that it displays appropriately on the screen.
Hope this helps.

The first aspect to use JPG to get under the size limit. PNG files are much larger. I usually resize all my images to 800 width prior to posting Since I use Windows, the built in Photos app can do it in a few seconds - open image (opens in Photos), right click, select resize, type width. then save.

You can resize all your images at once with Irfanview batch resize.
