yep - it needs to be under 500kb - pref under 250kb - I would imagine that if its being rejected for size it is over this probably due to either its ppi or its compression / quality setting.

for wab I normally resize to 800 wide , at 72ppi then resave the file with a different file name (to avoid overwriting the original) and save at a quality setting of no more than 7 (ie medium). I am using photoshop but the settings are broadly similar in other photo editing software
