I need help with facebook advertising

    I am having trouble uploading a photo for my ad. I've tried using ones I've resized in photobucket and it takes forever, forever, forever until finally I give up. Can anyone help me with this?

    Also, I'd like to know about limiting the length of time an ad runs. I've got daily spending limits set but I was wondering if I should limit the ad running time and then put it up again reworded?

    Any advice greatly appreciated

    Whats the file size for your image and the upload speed of your internet connection? Make sure you compressed your file to a .jpg before you upload it.

    I use a cable modem so I don't think that's the issue.

    Using photobucket and I honestly don't know the size of the file. I will check and see if I can compress it besides just making it, visually, smaller.

    Thank you

    I use a freeware image editor and crop the size to 110x80 and never have any issues. Little confused why you're using photobucket :confused:
