    So the limit for the image size is 300kbs, any idea how I can even take a picture that's that small?

    Set the image quality etc. to the lowest settings available.Still might not be low enough depending on the quality of your camera....I'm trying to do my own at the moment.

    When you upload your picture to the computer, most programs will let you resize your image.

    Does anyone know can you go back and upload your photo after you've finished registering?:cool::cool:

    Argh, I'm not uploading my own photo. There are so many variables. The last thing I want is to walk in and hear them say, "Oh, you're head just isn't quite right". It'll take two seconds for them to take one of you on the morning. And since they'll be taking a good few photos, all the student photos will look similar in quality.

    And plus - appearance-wise, I'm reminiscint of an Irish Justin Lee Collins at the moment :P

    They're actually pretty chill about photos.One person I know just used her debs photo and another used MS Paint to colour the background on his white.I don't think they're too picky.

    And besides, an Irish JLC would look badass on a student ID.It's only the bouncers that will be seeing it after all.

    Yeah, I'm not sure the bouncers would appreciate this though, no?:

    Guys, when you go downstairs under the library to collect your card... they take a picture there and then and its a lot better than uploading online as the image is a higher quality. Saves a lot of hassle.

    When I went to register this year I forgot that once you're finished you cant change the pic, if i go in on registration day and they take it there will that one override the one already in the system?

    Its a pretty chronic photo like!

    I'd pay for a fake ID with The Viper's credentials on it. The bouncers would probably let you in just from crackin their holes laughin :D

    Would like to know this too. I thought you would be able to but it appears you can't.
