I just fumbled my way through the process to create a gallery and upload an image. I kept having to resize the image to get it to less than 50kb. When I click on the thumbnail of the image in the gallery I don't get a larger image of the knife. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Gabriel,

I'm making a guess here based on what I see in your gallery. But, it appears to me that you resized your image by only changing the pixel dimensions of the photo. Your "full size" photo is now only 97 X 130 pixels. So, it is no larger than a thumbnail image.

To properly resize an image for posting, you need to resize it to the pixel dimensions that you want and then compress the photo to reduce the file size. Please read this tutorial on photo resizing in the link below and see if it helps you understand the process.
