I tried submitting a map so many times, but it always says that the preview file is to "large (over)"! i dunno if it means file size cuz i tried when it was like 100kb (gif files were like 11kb) and it still didn't work. I shrunk it down to 480 by 147 pixels and it STILL wouldn't work. How do you get a decent preview that will work? I tried GIF files and PNG files, none work
please help!

use the map for the file preview and it should work fine.

thats the prob, it's a BIT map, and I saved the image as a BMP and resaved it as a PNG, I tried submitting the files and it gave me an error message saying the preview was too big

Just take a screenshot of the map when you have it up in bitmonkey and copy paste the preview part as a .gif, that's what I do.

You need a better program like PhotoImpact or something which can save images that are optimized for file size.
If you don't have that, just make them smaller... 300 pixels wide or something, and save as jpg if it helps.
