I have trouble with their uploader when selecting some of my jpeg files off of my Ubuntu system. Even with samba and wine, on XP in Oracle VM.
They have the option for "basic uploader" in the bottom right section of the window when you press the picture button (it looks like the tree in the frame button above between the Insert Link and Insert Video buttons).
In the basic uploader you should be able to navigate to the file you're looking for and upload it. I regularly upload large files (>5MB) and they downsize automatically. Once you upload the picture you can then hover over it with your mouse cursor to expose a little "pencil" looking thing in the upper left corner of the image. Click on this and you can set the size of the picture on the screen as a thumbnail, or a variety of sizes.
Another option is to upload your picture to an image hosting site like imageshack and use the html link provided to you.
Either way, just start clicking buttons and trying shit, you'll figure it out before you break the internet.

So I think I wanna grow in a box right now.
I was thinking, I can get alot of boxes from work.
I can build a small frame out of wood and nail the cardboard to the frame.
I understand that during this will reduce my yeild, but i feel like since this is gonna be my first grow. I kinda want small plants.
Question, if the plants are small, i'll still be able to get clones off of them?

A cardboard box will work just fine! I did my first grow using a big box from a 30gal aquarium tank. It was lined with mylar gift wrap film from a dollar store! I got a harvest of over 4ozs from 2 plants - and I'm currently using that same box again for my 2nd grow. Its holding up great (and I got it free)...
I got a 'contractor pack' of a dozen CFLs (100w equiv. 2700k for flowering) at Home Depot for about 12-15 bucks...I don't remember exactly. The 'Y' splitters are in the neighborhood of $2.50 and they also have most other socket adapters that you could want all in the aisle near the splitters. Get the 6500k 'daylight' CFLs for vegging now, and you can save for a few weeks to get the 2700k for flowering later.
Check out a dollar store for silver mylar gift wrap film. You can use double stick tape to cover the box with it, then you've got a really cheap grow box. They also had 1.5 and 2.5 gallon buckets that I drilled drain holes into for plant pots. You can't get much cheaper than a buck (and I'm able to reuse them)! If you're creative, you can set up your grow on a low budget and save your money to buy good seeds...
