Why are my pictures coming out small when I upload them?

Everytime I try to upload my pics to facebook or to my email well basically to almost anything it comes out small like an icon. And when I try to expand it it comes out all pixel like. Can anyone please help me out?

Read your manual.

Well you didn't even explain how you are uploading them so we don't know how to tell you what you are doing wrong…

Because that's the resolution you have your camera set to?

Somtimes when you "compress files" to save memory and speed up your computer, it will "shrink" your photos. They'll usually look normal in your photo file, but they'll upload small like that. I do "Desk Cleanup" a lot because I'm a freelance writer/editor and spend So much time on this computer on a daily basis, and I've clicked "Compress files," and the same thing happened to me. I'm sure you know how, but go to your C: drive and click on Properties and under the General tab, there's a place to uncheck/check "Compress files" -- see if that might make a difference -- I'm sorry this is happening to you! Wish I could help more!
